I didn't think one could get a single 'B' channel over ISDN ... but I
could be mistaken.
In my early ISP days, ISDN was 2 x 64k (full-rate) 'B' channels and a
16k 'D' channel for signaling.

IIRC that 64k was in fact 56k with 8k for overhead.
I had one, and it would kick in a second channel if you pushed it, for a
whopping 112k. Metered, came out to about $500/mo.

I started what became 6x7 with a 64k ISDN line. And 9600 baud modems…
in ’93 or so. (I was a child, in Jr High…)

Thanks Jared, When I reminisce with my boss he reminds me that
this telco/ISP here initially started with a 56kbps internet
uplink , lol
Point of History:
When we, The World, first began allowing the general public onto the
internet in October 1989 we actually had a (mildly shared*) T1
(1.544mbps) UUNET link. So not so bad for the time. Dial-up customers
shared a handful of 2400bps modems, we still have them.
* It was also fanned out of our office to a handful of Boston-area
customers who had 56kbps or 9600bps leased lines, not many.
