[Cialug] DSL speeds

[Dave Weis]

One is about speeds, the other is about access methods, and the other that I just remembered is our fiber construction downtown that will be lit up this week as far as I know. 

We put in our own fiber route connecting the central office that is at the hub of our DSL/T1/Ethernet network with the building that has all of our routers/switches/servers. It's an important part of surprise #1 that is coming up.

Dave
