We have actually had fairly decent time getting circuits installed into that
gateway. If possible, order your T-1 from someone that actually has their
own cabinets within L3's suite. I have about five DS-3s, an OC-3 and a
couple of POTS lines and have never had any major problems with the
installs.
We've occasionally gotten the bad DLR from a vendor and L3 usually let us
know within a couple of days of when we sent them the DLR that there was a
problem.
