RE: Anyone hosted a web site using IDSL?

Go with a Frame Relay circuit.  You can start off at 128k and grow to full
T1, and beyond.  Find an ISP that offeres dedicated FR circuits.  We have
private WAN using FR @ 128k to a remote site that is $355/month for each
end.  If the ISP has FR with carrier X and you can get a circuit at your
site, I would go that way.  You will have to pay the FR at your site and at
least 1 PVC to your ISP.  Your ISP my take care of all the line cost and
bill you for the service.

The cable companies around here don't offer static IP addresses, so that
option is out.

The price of a T1 around here is $1500 per month.  I don't think I'll need
that kind of bandwidth to start.  Also, the phone company here says they
can't split a T1.

I'm concerned about the speed if IDSL.  To alleviate a bandwidth bottleneck,
I've considered using two (2) IDSL lines - one routed to an AS/400  server
that could handle software demos and customer support applications, the
other routed to a Linux server for file downloads.

Any other suggestions?
