Re: Leased Lines vs Frame Relay w/voice over frame

[Patrick Townsend <townsend@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

We have several customers using frame relay connections to an AS/400
from a number of vendors. Other than AT&T's recent problems with its
frame relay network we've not heard of any other problems. FR seems
generally more reliable than older digital/analog 56kb service.

Can't speak to voice over frame relay. 
HTH,
