Question : Qwest Business Class RADSL vs. Covad or XO SDSL vs. Comcast Business Cable Internet
We have a small branch office located in Spokane, WA. In about a month, they moving into a nicer office closer to the downtown core. There are 5 - 7 people working in that office. The main office is in Seattle; we have a Speakeasy full T1.
During their move, I will implement in Seattle a Cisco ASA-5510 VPN/Firewall appliance. In the Spokane office I will use the counterpart ASA-5505. My short term goal is to implement a static VPN tunnel between the offices using IPSec via the Cisco units. Longer-term, I want to implement Sharepoint server in addition to our existing Exchange running on SBS 2K3, in Seattle. Even longer-term, I want to implement perhaps a SDC in Spokane and implement DFS for our common network file shares. There are about 25 people in the Seattle office. This is fairly data/email intensive consulting firm.
I need to choose an ISP for the Spokane office. Qwest has "business class" RADSL available with a 7Mbps/896Kb. This is the easiest and least expensive "business class" option available. Given what I propose to do, so you think I will need more upstream potential bandwidth? If so, I will have to consider Covad or XO SDSL, but the cost will be about double or more.
Answer : Qwest Business Class RADSL vs. Covad or XO SDSL vs. Comcast Business Cable Internet
I have received no answers and have already made a decision to go with the Qwest RADSL service on a 1-year contract.
