Erm.. except 1:1 ISN'T the same as a leased line...
Unlike a leased line, 1:1 ADSL is still Asymmetric (that's what the A
in
ADSL stands for). Asymmetric in the sense of "upload speed not nearly as
fast as
download speed."
Therefore, while you might have a 512k _download_ on a 512k, you would
probably have a 64-128k UPLOAD speed.
If your aim is to give your users web access, then 1:1 ADSL is a good
idea
(service level arguments notwithstanding). If your aim, however, is to host
services such as a web site, then it's a BAD idea, since users coming into
your
website will see it as a 64-128k connection, not a 512k one.

Mark

1:! = a leased line but remember most adsl don't offer
SLA's. The
bandwidth is not physically allocated although on a
512k
adsl you
should
get 62kb/s throughput.
Thanx chris
For
another 600 quid a year you can have an SLA on the LLU product,
but they
are only doing certain exchnges and guess what, I aint on
one of them
lol
