How much bandwidth do you need?  Is a dialup modem fast enough?
Hi,

Not much at all. Just enough for a telnet/ssh session.
A dialup modem would likely do the trick, but that raises other issues about dialing up from the UK based NOC,
so I think DSL will be a little more flexible for us in this case.
If we must have a telephone line installed we may as well get DSL service over that.
Point taken though about reliability of DSL service vs plain PSTN.

I have had some offers from the right sort of companies.
One in particular has everything we need (low speed, static ip, no red tape&  a clue) at half the price of the others 
(ask me off list if you want the name).
Also suggested to me was doing a swap with another provider in the facility but it seems as if cross connects may be 
prohibitively expensive between suites/floors there.
Im going to wait for pricing on this and make a choice then.

Thanks to all who responded.

Regards,
Andy.
