Are you serious about the "guaranteed minimal bandwidth"? Kind of like a CIR for frame relay? Reason I ask is I was contemplating switching our remote offices for the network I run to Broadband/dsl solution but I could not get timewaner or bellsouth to give me a CIR. Since we run VoIP that is critical.
