True, but in my situation, I am getting a PRI, which from my understanding doesn't interface well with ISDN, and vice versa, though unfortunately I didn't have much time to do the reasearch, the quality of our phone lines is forcing my hands into going digital before we really wanted to. > Won't this be an expensive route?

Actually we were and still are planning on supporting both standards until they come up with one mix, and that in the end would also allow us for more phone lines and modems in the end. I agree with you on that. -Gary Margiotta TBE Internet Services http://www.tbe.net
