You will be able to get ADSL if the local exchange supports ADSL and you order an analogue telephone service (extra charge) to be used for the ADSL service. This service would be charged a standard telephone line rental. How many IP addresses do I get with my ADSL service? You will receive at least one static IP address with your ADSL order.

Basic ISDN effectively converts your telephone line to digital with two 'channels', each of which can carry a telephone conversation or data at 64Mb/s. When neither phone line is in use, the data channels can be combined to give 128Mb/s, which puts it at the bottom end of "Broadband". The drawback of ISDN is its price - Telstra have considered it a premium business service, and have priced it out of the reach of residential users. See similar questions...

Yes, however the line has to be re-graded to an analogue line, and BT charge to do this, you are also liable for any terms left on the ISDN contract. Once the line has been regraded, it will be checked for suitability for ADSL. There is a chance the line is not suitable and BT will charge to convert it back to ISDN. See similar questions...

ADSL can’t be installed on ISDN lines, so either you need a separate new (analogue) phone line or for the ISDN to be converted back to an analogue service. See similar questions...

Eicon has demonstrated ADSL over ISDN operation using the G.992.2 Annex B standard. Currently shipping products do not support ADSL over ISDN. The reason is that an ADSL connection may share the standard telephone wiring, however, ADSL itself is only connected to the Internet. Since a Diva ADSL modem only accesses the ADSL connection, it too is only connected to the Internet. See similar questions...

ADSL offers a cheaper and faster service than ISDN. ISDN works by providing two voice channels or a 128 Kbps data channel while ADSL is predominantly a data pipe providing an asymmetrical bandwidth of up to 6 Mbps downstream and 640 kbps upstream. However, the ADSL network is an overlay network and therefore does not require the expensive and time-consuming switch upgrades that held ISDN back for so long. See similar questions...

The two services are NOT the same. ISDN provides two voice channels or a 128 Kbps data channel while ADSL is predominantly a data pipe providing an asymmetrical bandwidth of up to 8 Mbps downstream and 1 Mbps upstream under good conditions. However, an ADSL access network will be an overlay network and therefore will not require the expensive and time-consuming switch upgrades that held ISDN back for so long. See similar questions...

You cannot use both WAN interfaces to connect to internet (via the same ISP or different ISP's) at the same time, as the router wouldn't know which internet connection you wanted. But you can have the ADSL connected to the Internet and use the ISDN for a dial-in teleworker or a VPN to a branch office. Technically speaking, where the ISDN is being used to route to a specific directly-dialled subnet. If you have a remote office or teleworker which only has ISDN (i.e. See similar questions...

Most of these services are not available in our service areas. Cable Modems, ISDN, and ADSL are all dependent on physical wires, and a middle man (i.e., the phone company). With Wireless Internet Access, you are dealing with no wires and directly with the ISP; there is no middle man. There are also speed factors. Click here to see a chart on speed comparisons.

Flat rate charging ISDN is essential if your application is video conferencing over switched PSTN numbers. ISDN also provides the ability of having 2 phone lines on the same copper loop, which is not possible with ADSL. See similar questions...

DSL is Faster: ISDN provides two voice/data channels, each at speeds of 64 Kbps, while DSL is predominantly a data service providing up to 1.5 Mbps downstream and up to 512 kbps upstream. Business DSL offers T1-like speeds of up to 1.5 Mbps-more than 10 times faster than ISDN! DSL is "always on": ISDN is a dial-up service (like a regular telephone line) that's digital and carries both data and voice; Business DSL is "always connected" See similar questions...

ISDN BRI provides the transmission of digital information between Allstream's local central office equipment and comparable equipment at the customer's location enabling simultaneous transfer of voice, data, video and fax communications at speeds up to 128Kbps (2 x 64Kbps). ISDN PRI provides two-way connectivity between a customer's Private Branch Exchange and the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) over a DS-1 interface enabling customers to carry both voice and data communications.

A modem converts your computers data packets into an analogue signal (sounds a bit like a fax machine) and uses the normal telephone network to pass this to your ISP (Internet Service Provider) who then turns the signal back into data and thus enabling your computer to communicate on the Internet. ISDN also uses the telephone network to transmit data to the ISP but does not convert the data to analogue signals; instead it uses digital equipment at the exchange and on your computer.

A3. ISDN Stands for Integrated Services Digital Network, which just means that it is a digital connection between you and the local exchange. The services refer to such things as Caller ID Display DDI numbers etc. Although analogue lines at home can display the Caller's number this is not common with business telephone systems. ISDN2e lines cost ?93 per quarter to rent but they have 2 channels (2 calls at the same time). Analogue lines only allow 1 call at a time and cost ?41. See similar questions...

Diginet is not the same as ISDN, Diginet is a permanent connection whereas ISDN is a switched service – in other words you need to dial-up to access the service. The costs involved for a Diginet connection is a fixed monthly rental,while with ISDN there is a fixed monthly rental and an additional usage charge. See similar questions...

If you are using a connection with 1 Mbps down load speed then you are having a speed that is 17.5 times faster that normal dial-up and about 8 times faster than DIAS & ISDN. See similar questions...
