[GLLUG] EFM costs

[Jean van Wyngaardt]

EFM where business is concerned is not a bad idea. You sure can get fast
home fibre broadband with the 80 odd down and 12 up, but you also have high
contention ratios and quality of service to contend with. Leased lines are
1:1 and have an uptime guarantee, which in a business context - it can be
vital depending on what services your servers are running.
