Troy,
Keep in mind that weather usually plays a role in wireless connections
involving line-of-sight connections. Unlike cell phones, the signal is very
focused and rain or snow can severely affect the signal strength and
clarity.
Get your sales rep to give you contact names of other customers in your area
and talk to them about how the weather impacts their connectivity.

"Around half" answers the question close enough -- as does Todd's
response. I'm comparing those costs with a $6,000 wireless setup with no
monthly costs. About one to two years of use looks like would pay for the
wireless -- if we can get a line of site in hilly rural PA.

I think it's just over half. Not positive, though, I would have to look
up
and old bill, I can probably do that sometime before the end of the week
and
get back to you.

Sarah,
Would you say that the T1 portion is at least half or more of the $850
average?

Out total bill to our vendor varies month-to-month, because in
addition to
our T1 line, they also manage out lines, provide full support and
provide
our phone lines and fax lines. The total bill for the past 8 months
has
averaged about $850 per month.

Sarah,
What do you pay for a T1 line like that per month?

I cannot comment on the PCAnywhere route, since we never used that
method.
We, also, have another plant about 15 miles away. They are
connected
through a T1 line. We have server synchronization between our
server
and
their servers on this line and we also do file sharing and they run
Vantage
off of a Terminal Server here. We have a terminal server and also
Citrix
metaframe. They have about 4-5 power users and 3 Data collection
Terminals.
Response Time is excellent and we have had very few problems with
the
terminal server/citrix route.
