<title>ISDN: Still around? Can I get it?</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23747804</link>
<description><![CDATA[Greetings!

I'll be straight forward with ya guys and get right to the point.

I am currently stuck with Dial-Up services provided by Verizon.
Where I live, I am unable to get anything better, aside from Satellite, which is absolutely out of the question for me at this point.

I have a whopping 46.6kbps connection speed minimum, with an average download rate of 3.5kbps.

So I was curious if ISDN Internet was still around, I know it was at some point, but today with all the DSL, Broadband, and Cable ISP, I'm not sure if it is or not.

I am under the impression it's kinda like Dial-Up, you use a modem to dial in to connect, but uses 2 data channels?

And if it is still around, what the the specifications for availability?
And what would the speeds be like, compared to what I have.

Thanks!

EDIT: Upon further investigation in these forums, I'll post more information.

I live in Northwestern Indiana.
My land line is with Verizon at Unlimited local & long distance for $40 a month.
I currently have Dial-Up though Verizon, 46.6kbps connection, 3.5kbps average download for $22 a month.

I've all ways had Dial-Up when the Internet was first readily available, as well as DSL when it came out.
Depending on where I lived, it was either or, so I am completely unknown to IDSN.

I will need an unlimited plan, I can't have any limits on my usage.
But should I be looking into IDSN or ISDL?
Seems ISDL is a crossbreed between IDSN and DSL.]]></description>

<title>DNS ip&#x27;s for dial up accounts on msn, yahoo, etc</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23725308</link>
<description><![CDATA[Hey, quite a few posts list that people are just using generic dial up accounts from different isp's what do you put in for the dns information for them, do they know what you are asking for if you call their support for information? I got an account with peoplepc because its cheap and has a lot of access numbers but they had no idea what I was asking for when I said I needed name server ip's for my connection... any idea what I should use?]]></description>

<title>ISDN Phone Setup</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23743457</link>
<description><![CDATA[ :oHi, I have been asked to set up a 4 ISDN phone lines for a business and I would like tips on the best way to do it.

From my research I know that I should order a BRI line from the telco and have them install it in the office.  After that I plan on having the BRI terminate at an NT1 and from the NT1 into an ISDN telephone, a Tone Commander 6220 to be exact.

In simpler terms

BRI->NT1->ISDN Telephone.

My question is this.  What is the best setup for terminating the NT1's and phones at the users work desk?

I do not want to terminate the NT1s in a telecommunications closet,  I want each workstation to have its own NT1 termination.  But, I want to ensure that I get to run two telephone lines off of each BRI.

Thanks in advance for any advice and input.  PS, I have been looking for the right desktop NT1 that will meet my requirements but so far I have not been able to find any.  Any sugestions will be welcomed, thanks.]]></description>

<title>ISDN in Arizona</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23661384</link>
<description><![CDATA[I'm in the 623 area code west of Phoenix and am looking at getting ISDN (again... had it in NorCal for a while).

I already have a quote from Qwest, and I'm looking for a reliable ISP to use with it.  I'd prefer a local provider if there's a good one available.  Any suggestions?]]></description>
