Unless you have a plan to take their dialup business by doing something like VOIP. I am looking at the MediaTrix product http://www.mediatrix.com as putting in as a CPE (Customer Premise Equipment) to convert voice to ip at the customer location. Then send out over the internet.

One is IP and the other is ATM. It is interesting that you say Covad and Northpoint because both of them can enable one type of the service. IP QoS utilizes the Type Of Service header or TOS in an IP packet and the Copper Mt. DSLAM's Northpoint uses are capable of IP-IQ software that does this distinction. If it goes from the DSLAM back to the core then it would have to do an FR-ATM interworking function. At that point, it can get passed off to a ATM VC that is designated higher priority or value by giving it VBR-rt, nrt, UBR, UBR+... whatever as long as the voice gets treated better. The ATM method just extends two VC's down to the customer premise box / modem / IAD and the voice goes through the ATM network its own path and priority back to the gateway.

And I am particularly interested to see what a co-op can do to help move the situation along. As I see it now, we are dependent as Covad and Northpoint resellers on what deals they make with CLECs for VoDSL, being that they control their own DSLAMs. Of course, we can, in each metro area, that we interconnect with such DSL carriers, split out the voice at the point of interconnection with the carrier and hand that off to a CLEC, but at that point the voice packets have traversed the carriers local network, which is oversold in many cases and would likely result in inadequate QOS for business-grade voice service. So what do we do about this situation? What are Covad and Northpoint's current plans?
