Not at all. I can offer a Cisco solution that would likely leave change out of $5K or $6K.

Kind regards,

ok, sorry let me re-phrase that, what link speed or bandwidth does your solution support? We implemented an ATM (34M) connection to Telecom and worked closely with all the local (NZ) vendors and it was not a cheap solution robbie My solution suits local conditions. that

Oooooh, your clients are in for a bit of a shock. ATM and low cost do not go in the same sentence together. ISPs who have bought Cisco equipment capable of ATM have spent 10s of thousands for the correct ATM card and the modular chassis to go with it.

On the other hand, if you are prepared to be a bit experimental you may be able to use a PC installed with Linux and a supported PCI ATM card. I've never seen anyone try it though.
