Re: tlug: ISDN Access



OCN Economy Service is like a party line.  You and up to 20 other people
all share a 128K leased line.  I'll let you figure out what happens if
everybody tries to transfer a file at once.

You run it with an OCN router.

To stitch a couple of cliches together, there's no such thing as a free
lunch and OCN is no magic bullet.  It's much cheaper than a real leased
line, of course, but you also get much less.  OCN is better suited to
running a low-stress server than to web surfing.
