Quoth Mark Patterson on Tue, 10 September:
: 
: What equip. do i use to break up our T1 into resellable portions for 
: potential clients ranging in need from 56kb - 128kb and above? 

The cheapest thing for you to do is to sell ethernet drops.
Moreover, it is very desirable from your client's perspective
because they do not need a sync or isdn router, and they can
take advantage of surplus available bandwidth.  What you sell
is not a fixed increment, but either a guaranteed minimum available
bandwidth (using a bandwidth limiting router) or a statistical
guarantee.  In this way you can charge a premium price (due to
superiority of service) while incurring lesser infrastructural
costs than competing services.
