Internet Lines

You can get a product from ramp networks, inc. called Webramp (www.webramp.com)

It basically is a proxy server in a box allowing multiple users to access the internet at once. I have used it in one of our remote offices before, giving all users on that network access to the internet. The particular model we had allowed us to connect up to three modem lines (we only used one), but allow all x amount of users to share that connection through a proxy.

You can get different models for dsl, isdn, analog (phone), you will have to check with the provider and / or webramp to see what is right for you.

You may want to look at a DSL solution if available. The prices for DSL are dropping, and the connection is fast and always on. Many companies are now offering DSL routers / hubs as part of the package, which would allow all your users to share the connection without a server.

We arranged with our ma bell supplier to have several phone lines with switching devices such that a specified number of people can be using the phone lines at the same time for whatever, then suppose you maxed out & next person wants in ... they get data on their screen telling them who is hogging the lines, so they can go talk with those individuals to find whose need is most urgent.

We have our string of phone lines into the biz in which they are prioritized with voice being more important ... if we need another voice connection, we can kick modems & faxes off line to get that. This means that the modem users need to know in advance of this risk.
