[BC] Multiple ISDN Question

[Dana Puopolo]

It works like a charm. We're using Verizon DSL on each end. The Barix
Exstreamers will look for an alternate/third URL if they lose the feed on the
main one. 

Though the DSL at The transmitter end has been flawless, I do plan to add
cable Internet and a dual WAN router in the future for automatic backup.

Additionally, I want to run a second static IP address cable Internet
connection at the atudio to originate a second feed.

the MPEG-2 feed (mono) is only about 70 kbit. a small fraction of the 1500
kbit capability of the DSL. 

We also use a (free) VOIP telephone there to run the Sine Systems Remote
control.

your a more daring person then I.  I wouldn't use the public Internet for an
STL unless due to some catastrophic event it was the only means left
temporarily.  And even then I'd still take the Access unit because bit for
bit you'd using less bandwidth then using the Barix boxes with MPEG.
