Subject: Re: (usr-tc) Opinions needed on 3COM/USR Totalcontrol NS-8

If your RBOC is like mine (Ameritech) then you are on the wrong track with BRI. They will screwup the provisioning and you might get one channel to work on each BRI as host mode for V.90. Your best bet is to get a box capable of PRI and only provision 8 channels if that is all you need. If the switch supports ESF then just use channelized T1's (cheaper then PRI in most markets). You will be far better off in the long run. One added benefit is the ability to easily add channels as time goes by. Your line charges are less with PRI/T1 as well. I have done both ways so I know what I am saying on this subject.
Sincerely,

Does anyone have opinions, good or bad, on the 3COM/USR Totalcontrol NS-8
remote access server? I'd use it to allow 8 V.90 connections over 4 ISDN
BRI lines. I need it to support TCP/IP and Appletalk over PPP. The price
on the secondhand market is quite good.
