Bill, some frame relay providers will accept an ISDN hookup to their local cloud entry (point of presence). You might want to look into that since you already have the ISDN setup. (I wouldn't suggest it if you didn't have it already). If ISDN entry is available you will still have the relay charges but not connection for 29 miles. Figure it out, though; it might be cheaper to pay for the full-time leased line than ISDN connect charges. But if you're going to keep ISDN anyhow as a backup, maybe it would make sense to use it. (Is your leased line 56KB? That would be typical. In that case it's half the speed of a home ISDN two B channel line at about the same price for 24x7 service, at least in my area. Of course you have to find someone at the phone company that can spell ISDN.) Spots
