Re: I have Fiber in my front yard - What now?

Have you looked into ISDN? (Integrated Services Digital Network) or IDSL (Integrated Digital Subscriber Line)? They are older technologies, but can deliver up to 144k/144k long distances.

ISDN is somewhat like Dial-up, but with one or two "B" channels that deliver 64k per channel, and a third "D" channel for ISP com. Some companies offer unlimited service, some charge by the hour.

IDSL is a dedicated DSL phone line. Its a secondary line to your primary telephone. It can offer slightly faster speeds up to 144k, they combine both the "B" channel and the "D" channel for one , always on digital connection. The downside is that the second line can only be used for the IDSL connection.

I have thought about IDSL, but I have no idea how to go about getting it. AT&T doesn't offer it and a couple of other ISP's I called didn't even know what it was. That 144K up and down should be plenty enough to do the things I want to do with it, but I just have to find someone that will do it.

idsl isn't offered in your area.

theres your best bet. it's not unlimited usage though.

why not try finding out who owns or operates the buried cable in front of your house? if they say yes we can give you a drop you'll probably have to pay an installation fee in the thousands though
