Glenn, The T1 communication charge is about $300/month for each location (home and office). I have enough lines at each location that that would pay for itself. (We will need 2 data/voice switches of some sort and that will be the first real expensive part, but at least it is a one-time charge). On top of the communications charge, there is a $1,000/month charge for internet access through a T1. That is the tough part. By routing from multiple homes through the office router to the ISP, we reduce this to a single monthly $1,000 charge. However, this is still sizeable and a jump up from our existing 56K frame relay charge. Gary Korn
