Compare T1 Prices and Save!
By: John Shepler, telecommunications consultant

Traditionally, T1 line service has been the domain of the telephone carriers who invented it. Within the last few years, however, T1 has become the defacto standard for business connectivity. This has brought changes to the telecommunications industry and tremendous availability and price savings for business owners.

Why T1? T1 is the lowest cost professional grade digital communications line commonly available. In fact, T1 service is available just about everywhere within the continential United States. Unlike consumer grade digital line services such as DSL and cable modem Internet, T1 lines come with a service level agreement (SLA) that ensures your service's availability.

T1 lines can be configured to provide dedicated Internet service at 1.5 Mbps both upload and download. They can also be set up to deliver multiple telephone lines. You can get local and long distance telephone service with 23 or 24 phone lines per T1 to connect directly to your PBX telephone system. In many areas, you can also get Integrated T1 service. This combines telephone and Internet service on one line, which is likely more reliable and less expensive than having a dozen analog phone lines and a DSL Internet service.

Our technical team is available to you on a 24/7 basis to help pick the appropriate T1 or fractional T1 line service and get you the best contract price available from your suite of a dozen or more competitive vendors. Enter your basic contact information in the short form above on this page, or call us anytime toll free at 1-866-436-7868 and mention Reference Code #1265 for T1 and T3 services.

 T1 Internet Service Do's and Dont's

Written by: Patrick Oborn - Sep 2, 2010


While Dave Letterman may never read this list on his show, we've created a Top 10 list of California T1 Internet Providers. In our review of service providers we considered reliability, customer support, provisioning and financial stability. In our opinion a top provider of services will have a high rating in each of the categories. Unfortunately some of the providers we found were regional providers and may not be near you but two of them are so good you may just want to move closer to be on their network!

The top company in our survey was Telepacific. The only downside to this company is the fact that they only offer service in California and Las Vegas. Telepacific received top marks in all four or our categories and is what we recommend most to customers in California. The second carrier in our list was USLEC. Like our fist pick USLEC is a regional player offering services in the south and on the eastern seaboard. USLEC was founded and is run by engineers. These people have a passion for getting it right and keeping their customers happy. Number three on our list is New Edge Networks. New Edge is a national player found predominantly in metro areas. New Edge is large enough to be a strong player but still small enough to treat customers like a small company.

Our number four position goes to Netifice, formerly Epoch. Again, a small Tier 1 player but excellent service nationwide. Number five position goes to ACC Business. Available everywhere in the continental US, ACC used the ATT network exclusively and provides a high level of service. Positions six through ten when in the following order: Telarus, Sprint, Xspedius, PNG, and Megapath. When looking for a reliable provider you should be comfortable with any of these. Make sure you speak to your broker about the strengths and weaknesses of each carrier. While our rankings were based evenly on the four criteria mentioned at the beginning of the article you may decide that some criteria are more important to you than others. Good luck in your search.
