Hence, you're already using NGN (did you notice a prolonged loss of DSL line a while back? that was the conversion) - it's merely a bandwidth upgrade. Assuming the SnR between you and the new box is OK, higher bandwidth should not be a problem. Can your ISP supply the demand, especially to traffic outside the borders of Israel? Good question.
