I spoke with someone at the last ISPCON who was having a similar problem. As it turned out the TELCO had been somehow running their new switch in such a way that the incoming calls were being re-routed through their old analog switch over a CAT5 Cable in the sub-station. The only way that the guy found out about it was that he was friends with one of the techs who allowed him to look through the station. Basicly the trouble boiled down to the fact that the TelCo techs were old had and had little working knowlege of their new digital equipment.

I have also run into a similar problem on the client side when the client had both their credit card capture machine and computer hooked to a line that had at one time been running through their AT&T Digital Phone system. Basicly the point is that the phone system was prventing proper downstream digital conversion(or the lack there of).

We are on copper her that has had well over 50 years of weather abuse and we still manage to get connections as high as 44000 when the circuit distance is close to 10 miles. Just lucky I guess. :)
