I work for a small business that will soon combine 3 locations into 1 and need high speed internet access for approx. 50 users. We currently use ISDN for our access but our President wants something faster to accomodate us all. We are a moderate Internet user, mostly downloading updates to programs and email. Would going with T1 be the next best leap or should we consider something else like DSL or Satelite?

Normal 56k connection can handle up to 10 networked connections thru internet sharing. High volume would uage would take up most of your bandwidth. Low volume, such as maybe checking email or viewing some websites thru all connections would not use up much bandwidth.

I have heard alot of complaints from customers about their DSL Service, since DSL is still fairly new and still not 100% guaranted to work for all people, I would not choose DSL as my companies connection.

You can Set up a mainframe, with a T1 connection, and route your users thru that for a more stable internet connection.
