>>We now host over 500 domains on a single T1 we purchase from a
second-tier provider at a cost of about $500 / month.  We have a DSL
failsafe.


Chris -

How does incoming and outgoing traffic get redirected to your DSL
"failsafe" if your T1 goes down, since they have different IP addresses?
Sounds like you'd need a pretty fancy in-house router and some
programming on one or more upstream routers.

Are both circuits from the same upstream provider, and do they sell and
configure that "failsafe" service, or did you roll your own?

We're happy (and very fortunate) with our current situation, but I've
always wondered about this and might someday need to do the same kind of
thing.
