Anyone have a nice layman's terms explanation of the throughput/latency
differences between a 56k modem, a 56k leased line, and a 56k frame relay
circuit?  This is assuming a "perfect" lab enviroment, ie. the modem
connects and sustains at maximum capability, the frame cloud is not
overloaded etc..  Please reply off list.

Thanks,

Tim
