Brian, We are having to make the same decision. Our decision is to move everything over to Ascend Maxes because they are a much more stabile unit than the 3Com gear. We hardly ever have any problems with our Maxes yet it seems like we always have issues with the 3Com TCH. Also, Ascend (now called Lucent) doesn't have as many problems with v.90 and very few problems with the Rockwell chipset. And Lucent's support is better than 3coms.

We are in the process of merging two ISPs. Our ISP runs on the 3Com Hiper Arch Chassis the other ISP runs on Ascend. Since we both use ELI for our Channelized T-1s we are considering porting their dial in number over to our 3Com chassis at our location.. What problems should we anticipate moving customers from an ASCEND unit to 3com? Both are using the "V90 standard." protocol. Would we be better off using their ASCEND equipment? Any feedback is appreciated.
Thanks -Brian
