I see this as a good thing. We don't really care what our users do with the bandwidth they buy from us as long as it's legal. Bandwidth hungry applications are good for our model as the more they need the more they buy. I don't see that as a bad thing for our bottom line! I do see this hurting t

Trango GigaLINK radios have eight wayside T1 circuits alongside four independent copper GigE ports for data. If this is too pricy or overkill then I would look into the RAD Data Communications Airmux-200. Gives you up to four T1 ports along with Ethernet transport all in one package. Works well
