Hi!

I just want to know that if there is any way to make a connection for a permanent link with an ISP without using any radio modem setup / router / bridges etc ( i.e without using any expensive devices ).

I want a cheapest way for this link with a minimum budget for initial setup & also for minimum per month billing.

Also let me know if there is any cheap device for this setup in the market?

Hope my above question will be understandable.

Awaiting a helpful reply as always.

Thanks / Sulman

If you have a DSL connection you can get a broadband router for under $100.00. If you don't want any other services from your ISP that would be the cheapest way to go. But you need a router to connect your network to your ISP's network.

Hi,

I just want to let u know that we have no ISDN / DSL / ADSL services in our area.

Currently we are using internet on analog modems.

I just want to know about the link only for a server for e-mails ( for incoming & outgoing ) using either any wirless device or something like this.

Kindly let me know if u have any solutions for this.

Awaiting helpful reply.

Thanks / Sulman

I investigated satellite broadband for our company. They can provide good download speeds but the upload speed was 56k. They were working on faster upload speeds when I investigated it. Technology might have changed.

I corresponded with folks onTR and the ones who tried it were unhappy with the results. Poor reception in bad weather, snow is a killer.

If you cant get anything else this may be a good solution.

If you have multiple available phone lines, you could find an ISP in your area that can do Multi-Link PPP connections. You would need (2) modems in your computer and enable multilink ppp and also enable internet connection sharing w/ that computer. This is only sensible for smaller networks though.
