Isdn ?
With an ISDN Connection to the internet, do you still have to "dial" up the server or is it a permanent connection like ADSL ?
thanks. |

Its a dial up deal, with call charges as well.

You do "dial" but it takes about 1 second to connect.

ISDN is such a rip off, you have to pay for your line to be changed
£200 then you have to pay for the ISDN service £25 month then you have to pay for an Anytime access package(Freeserve Anytime etc) £15 month. totalling at, pffft, get ADSL, faster and cheaper |

ISDN may seem like a ripoff, but when it's the only game in town, you don't have much choice.

If it's possible I would get 128k ISDN as well as opposed to just a one channel 64k connection. I would think that just 64k wouldn't be all that much faster than plain old dialup. HTH
