Just a thought but, why not leverage both simultaneously and boost
the overall speed? Clients will only notice a slowdown when one or
the other goes down, but QOS will usually be better. At least you
wouldn't be wasting $80/$60 a month on something not used. Even
better is that no intervention would be necessary - both connections
were live to begin with so you're simply dropped to 50%.
I looked into doing this myself with WiFi and dialup connections in
addition to cable, but seeing as my neighbours have cable connects
and I don't have a dedicated line for dialup (not to mention the
intolerably slow speeds for even one computer) I haven't implemented
it. However, I have met quite a few that spread their connects across
various DSL, cable, T1, and other frame-relays so it certainly is
doable.

That is what we have, our main connection is DSL and we have a backup
Cable connection, if one connection goes down you switch to another.
It had happened to us in a past DSL went down, 10min. and we were on
Cable High Speed.
So price wise it is a good arrangement as well:
DSL 60CAD
Cable Hight Speed (7MB down / 1Mb up) at 80CAD
Not to mention the down is limited to restarting your eth0 on your
server and update you DNS to new IP if you are running web-server.

Subject: [Asterisk-Users] Should I choose DSL @ 1.5 or a full T1?
I'm looking to expand my bandwidth for my Asterisk PBX.
Why should I choose a T1 over DSL for my asterisk server?
I found someone offering T1's for $290 a month + Loops or 3 Meg
for $561 a
month + Loops. Is this a good deal?
Thanks
Bart

If your looking at wanting to use QOS or Multiprotocol Label
Switching on
the same line, then a T is the way to go. You don't mention the
equipments
though so it's hard to answer your question. How many calls, Data
& VOIP,
Protocol? Tier One ISP? You get what you pay for, it all depends
up what you
need.
