John, Check the front of your local phonebook for CLEC listings. In your area, I'd expect to find at a bunch listed, and at least two or three that are facilities based, capable of serving most areas in the Willamette Valley (Vancouver down to Eugene). If not, perhaps there's a good business for you to investigate. =D Our CLEC here, KMC Telecom, does the hybrid T1 thing as a matter of course. I can have a 6x6 system delivered to my customers for less than $400/month (.09/local connect), or unlimited local outbound for less than $500/month. KMC even provides the customer with a Lucent Connectreach, which breaks out the POTS lines and can hand off the data either as a FT1 or Ethernet. I'd like to play with using * to do it all, but need to find a qualified guinea pig first. -- Troy Settle Pulaski Networks http://www.psknet.com 540.994.4254 ~ 866.477.5638 Pulaski Chamber 2002 Small Business Of The Year _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
