I know that the ISP has as much to do with functionality as the DSL provider does (not always the same entity). For instance, my ISP provides absolutely no filtering (my preference), but many of the ones I spoke to during my initial ISP search were either very vague about access restrictions or treated all their customers as if they were complete idiots.

ADSL is the least costly, but lowest in quality. IDSL is the highest quality, but also the costliest.

I have a customer, who at the moment has a fractional T1 (64K) internet conection, they actually have 2, one private, one for their public wireless network. This is costing them $220 a month, with a yearly charge of $225. If they switch ISP's, just for the private network to a DSL solution, they can get a 512 / 512 connection for $140 a month, quite a saving. Now bearing in mind, they need and want to up their bandwidth, can any of you supply the pro's and cons of moving to dsl and getting rid of the T1. I have the understanding that a full T1 is 1.544 Mbits up AND down. TOTAL BANDWIDTH is 1.544 Mbits. Is that correct??
