Another solution that sounds great, and would work fine since then it's
not Sasktel's computers that are tied up doing the seeding, but the end
user. You can charge less, just like DIY DSL and Cable Modem hookups.
Too bad Sasktel can't be bothered to set this up. I was pretty
interested in a cheap 306- VOIP # setup from them until Scott mentioned
this. That's a customer they lost, and I haven't paid those Sastel guys
a single dollar in a number of years :p
