Groan.... years ago, I had a T-1 running to a teleconferencing center I 
managed - over $1000 a month for 24 64-Kb channels, IIRC.  Surely there 
has to be a better way in most places, if only cable Internet.  I get 13 
MB down, 2.5 MB up from Comcast, on their mid-grade "performance" 
service.  No RFI either, and no twisted pair involved.
