•Once a single connection size gets bigger than 5Mbps, the cost per Mbps jumps 15x!
•With TeePipe, you can build fat pipes by combining a cable connection* and one or more DSL connections without hitting the price hump.
•A fault tolerant TeePipe connection is actually much more reliable than any of the single connections since *all* component lines must fail for an outage to happen.
•*multiple cable connections don’t really help, but multiple DSL connections scale well up to about 3-4 especially when from different ISPs
