It rather depends what you are doing with it. If you are sending data
from an async comms line accross it you'll probably get a v110 link over
ISDN getting you a 38400 bps link. Some manufacturers do better with
propriatory standards like Sonix at 57600.

If you use the ISDN as a LAN bridge, utilisation will probably be much
better.
