DSL is a voice grade circuit with no guarantees. DS1s 2s 3s, etc. are data circuits that have guaranteed up time. That means if it breaks in the middle of the night, they're going to wake somebody's sorry ass up and dispatch him...NOW. That's what you're paying for.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,12893232 Sat, 12 Mar 2005 09:44:55 EDT Re: Hopefully this will lead to cheaper T1s, T3s, http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,12889465 Fershlugg : count yourself lucky... it's $289/mo/T1 here from SBC......]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,12889465 Fri, 11 Mar 2005 19:28:37 EDT Re: Hopefully this will lead to cheaper T1s, T3s, http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,12889390 audiog :

I currently pay $180 to SBC for each of my four T1s (plus what my ISP charges me). This $720/month is JUST for the local loop.

What a ripoff. Hopefully something comes of this complaint.
If your ISP is certified as CLEC they can get your T lines at wholesale and mark it up at less than what SBC is selling it for. I would shop around for a ISP that is a CLEC or resells a CLEC that is a wholesaler of bandwidth. The key is that they own your loop or lease it from SBC as a UNE-L and own their own network that should tell you if SBC is over charging you for you service. What state are you in? If I may ask....Shop around you are a business buying bandwidth and you are already tagged as a premium customer( high margin ). ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,12889390 Fri, 11 Mar 2005 19:17:21 EDT Re: Hopefully this will lead to cheaper T1s, T3s, DS3s http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,12889147 hottboiinnc : thats why you shop around for the T1s.

But SBC is a total rip. which is why a lot of people don't use them. Keep the CLECs and the Naked DSL coming!]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,12889147 Fri, 11 Mar 2005 18:40:23 EDT Hopefully this will lead to cheaper T1s, T3s, DS3s http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,12889120 raye : I currently pay $180 to SBC for each of my four T1s (plus what my ISP charges me).
