Covad T1s have a 4 hour TTR SLA.
And AT&T circuits also have a SLA...but you have to make sure you ask for it to be included in your agreement.
AT&T does charge more...mostly because they don't really want small business customers...they go after big enterprise and government accounts....and if a small business wants their service, they'll do it, but they will charge a large business price. -- »www.Digium.com |

·AT&T DSL Service
| We were ordering our PRI from AT&T because of previous issues with our previous CLEC provider. We figured we'd get our internet T1 from them as well, the initial price was over $1000/m without the local loop, but after showing them quotes I got from several CLECs the price dropped to under $400/m with local loop for the same service. The install was a nightmare, 90+ days overdue for the start of the install, faulty "new" Cisco router, faulty CSU/DSU in replacement router. The line didn't become functional till about 160 days after the order was placed. Since then I've had several cases where routes on AT&T's internal network were dysfunctional, sometimes for over a month. Latest one was kinda major, SBC-SoCal DSL (lsanca.sbcglobal.net) to AT&T BizSrvs San Diego (sd2ca.ip.att.net) was dead from about mid-late May till about a 2 weeks ago. |

Gee, could you help a service provider of mine? Their T1 has been out since Thursday, and as of this morning, they still didn't have an ETA on the repair from what I heard. |
