(ASCEND) PRI vs. T1 (fwd)



Once upon a time Kevin Steinhaus shaped the electrons to say...
>My question is - Is is normal to see a slight drop in connection speeds?
>I've been getting 46-48 very consistantly using the PRI, now I'm getting
>44-46 pretty consistanly using the T1's.  Are there any parameters I need to

Yep, 2K drop seems common.  It has been reported countless times by people
using MAXen, PM-3s, USR TCs, Cisco AS5x00s, etc.  CT1s just seem to perform
a notch lower than PRI with modem connects - as a generalization.  Note there
have also been some cases of CT1 being better, but those aren't common.
