Chuck,
I'd certainly suggest you do look at TeraGo. I've used them (and continue
to use them) in several locations both as a backup or the primary
connection. The speed and quality of the connections have been good, and
their support people have been generally responsive when there have been
problems (not perfect, but above most providers). I would have to say that
I would not rate the reliability of the service as high as a T1 or fibre,
but as good as DSL. You are getting more performance (compared to DSL) at a
good price, as well as symmetric speeds. The one-time install costs compare
favourably to T1 from what I recall, and much less than having to drag in a
kilometre or two of fibre.
They are one of the few options I've found when you're anywhere in the
fringes, besides DSL or T1.
Regards,
Doug.

Yep, I hear you.
The bigger problem is that Bell is currently providing MPLS services to
them, major expensive, over engineered solution for them. So, it's all going
out the window. The problem is, Bell is going to take a hit for this and
loose money. And Bell is the only one we can seem to ask if there is DSL
services here or our options. And of course, their answer is NO and T1 is
the only option. And of course they are trying to go with long term T1
contracts that seems pretty high in my opinion. Not sure if there is anyone
other than Bell to ask about DSL service here (I'm thinking they are right,
no DSL here).
There must be other options, it's killing me. I am looking into TeraGo
Networks now.
Regards,
Chuck
