slow links aggregated (Score 1)

Indeed when dealing with branch offices in rural locations you sometimes only get crappy DSL connections - unless you want to spend a bundle on the real stuff. I end up just buying a few of those DSL links from the cheapest providers - trying to get links from different providers as well if possible - and then aggregating those DSL links with some intelligence which allows me to use all those links as one fat pipe. Works pretty well and can get pretty cheap. The only problem left is that you have to consider some latency sensitive applications if applicable. Just to comment on this subject. It seems bandwidth is a nagging problem for a lot of folks and sometimes and I think it can be solved with low-cost products and fairly inexpensive high-tech solutions. Sorry if I digress.
