There seems to be two main ways to do this: build the network yourself by creating relationships with the local DSL providers (Bell, Telus, MTS, etc) ; or build the network using a third-party that already has a DSL infrastructure in place. The third-party DSL infrastructure is a sure thing, since they've been doing it for a while. However, we're looking at a large number of locations so the cost of implementing the DSL internally seems to be more compelling.
