Being new doesn't excuse lack of effort. > >From your answer then, am I to assume no one is running * servers on a > standard DSL line? Yeah, "standard" DSL, what a joke. With all the speeds listed around as being DSL, and the throw away gmail account, we couldn't determine if you where speaking about a deployment in the US or better developed countries where we needed to pay attention to the capitalization of your 'b' or if you where in a less developed area where DSL rollouts actually where of similar speed to dialup. BTW, bandwidth is pretty much always referred to in bits as it is a nice high number and make marketing people very happy. Add to that the fact that the encoding determines if it takes 8 or 10 bits to actually transmit a byte down the line. On my Comcast account back when we did VoIP in my home, we could squeeze 2 concurrent gsm encoded calls down the 128k upstream. At the moment the 3rd concurrent call came up, lag would start setting in and eventually all calls where useless. Of course you also couldn't browse the web very much if more than one call was in progress either. Once you get some time to start looking around you will find there has been several people write up nice little graphs showing what protocols using what codecs use what bandwidth. Then you can do the math on how much you think you want to get accomplished. You will probably find out that you still can't do much on the link outbound and have a call in place at the same time. So you probably want to still turn off the webserver and jabber server, they would be better off coloed anyways and there are a lot of cheap colo places for non critical hosting. -- Steven Critchfield <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
