I am seeking information on how to establish a .com account from 
my office in my residence.  ISDN is available from AT&T in my area.
What hardware would I need?  What procedures need to be followed?
I need to be able to send software to different sites as it gets
created and maintained.  I don't want to offer anonymous access
at this time.  

Hayes has two units that interface into the NeXT but other than
price I'm not too sure about their advantages/ disadvantages etc.

Also,  AT&T informed me that I need to purchase a switcher/dialer
thingy from a third party because although the data leaves the NeXT
via ISDN, it is converted to switch56 sent across the U.S. etc. 
and then converted back to ISDN at its destination.  This seems 
pretty klunky, can anyone very or correct my information.

It the Hayes unit the only external hardware necessary?

Any thoughts?
