around here (Canada) its a tariffed service and I think its about $16 or
$18 for the whole thing (both ends). you just have to spend $200 of time
on the phone to find someone who knows what you are talking about first.

its also referred to as DVACS up here but that's really what's on it, not
the pair itself. There may also be some magic used to aggregate the low
speed serial channels into a single TDM higher speed circuit.

if you are planning on running your own g.hdsl or something like that, I'd
love to hear how many cable feet you have and what sort of results you get
if you finally get something hooked up.

around here you are pretty much limited to adsl, single pair hdsl
delivering T1, or analog lines, no more isdn bri's, none of the fancier
dsl variations. Other than that you can experiment with dry copper, or try
to get fibre if its available.
