My impression [which could be wrong] was that the 10Plus service was
delivered over clear channel DS3 between netedges and the actual 10Mbit/s
portion was dealt with at the media exchange. I didn't know/think they
formatted the DS3 as an ATM 10mbit/s circuit.
Then again, I have never ordered 10Plus service.
