Currently need to establish a direct link from one company to two other business partners, i.e Point A to Point B, Point A to Point C.

This direct connection requires very little bandwidth, even 56K. The only requirements are that it remain constant teminate at a rack-mount router with a CSU/DSU and Ethernet port.

I've looked into T1's but are very expnsive for the distance required. Would ISDN or Business DSL be a viable option? If so, what hardware would I need? If not, are there any other services I can look into?

 
T3st1ng,

when I used to work for SBC they sold something called 'rlink' which was delivered as dsl to one site, and came in over atm at the headend site - it was really cheap, too, like 75$/month for like a 512K connection. Maybe possible in your area? Would be great if you already have ATM at the head-end.
