16 kb limit? Ouch.... At the moment our standard is 256 up and 600 something down. Of course the person on the other end would be seeing the 256.. for a little money I can upgrade to 1 gig both ways.. We are that close to the central office, I actually could throw a rock and hit the wall of it down the street from where the museum is here! Yes, I can lease a block of static IP address ... that they will charge me $10 a month for... How reliable is dsl though for running servers over!? thanks again! Ed Sharpe archivist for SMECC

Would like to hear what others may have experienced…

The main problem is you upload limit, as you upload limit will be customer download limit :-((( Here, in france, the "standard" DSL (the cheapest) has 16kb upload limit, which is not enough for a commercial product. The next one is 64kb, which begins to be a good bandwidth

Last note, you need a static ip, of course. -- Paul
