We currently have a 128k frame relay from GTE for one of our pops and
would like to increase the speed. When it was originally installed, we
were led to believe that any increase in speed was merely a software
controlled item on GTE's end.  Now they want some Non-Recurring Charge to
change speeds saying that there is alot of work to be done to accomplish
this and that is why there is a large additional charge. BTW....we also
got the 128k originally because it DIDN'T have any NRC charge. 

The CSD/DSU at our pop is capable of handling the speeds so that doesn't
need to be changed. What is involved in changing speeds with frame-relay
and what do I need to know to argue the point intelligently with GTE?

TIA...
