Some vendors have their heads on straight, don't oversell the market, and generally have a clue. Others, not so good. When I use my cable internet (1500/128) to connect to our corporate VPN (and the iSeries through that), I can expect about 90% reliability. When I am using my DSL (512/512) to connect to various services (including netshare400), I get 99.9% reliability. The cable internet is through AT&T, the DSL is through QWEST. Note: The reliability figures are "Gut Read Calculations" (copyright 2002 David Gibbs, all rights reverts, void where prohibited or mutilated) and not based on any statistical evidence. david
