Some raise it.
As I said my numbers were dated, and I didnt know what they were now.
10:1 is horrible for dialup, busy signals abound at higher than 7:1, or
at least they used to. I havent worked for an isp that did dialup for 8
years, for the most part dialup has no money in it now. $10/mo accounts
are also the reason the contention rate for a modem is up.
You've got to be kidding me, dialup is huge. *Still!* Especially, when you
have recip comp with the ILEC! Rural areas w/o Wireless, Cable, DSL.. what
do they use? Dialup, *still*.
Agreed, 10 to 1 is harsh in *some areas*. Rural, 10 to 1 is too high. You
gotta know your busies to determine this figure, 7 to 1 is entirely fair
in a non-rural area.
I'm, personally, waiting a year or so to hear about the complaints from
the lists before I bother.
Could you elaborate on what exactly you are waiting for? Perhaps its my
lack of sleep that is making it a bit harder for me to comprehend that
sentence. What will be on what lists and from whom?
Pricing, Bug Reports (i.e. all of the problems associated with previous
digium products, google for them), and it'd be from you, who would shell
out bug reports, spending $4k to tell me not to buy -- yet. :)
