Re: AutoCAD over WAN |

I agree with Mark - drawings over a T1 are painfully slow. T1 is
1.5Mbit/sec, so opening even a 1.5M drawing takes close to 10 seconds just
to get the data, even under ideal conditions, and that's if you're the only
one transferring data. If you have multiple users or large Xrefs - forget
it. And by the time you add all the other networking overhead, it can really
get slow.
If you're working with relatively small drawings, it may not be so bad. And
small stuff such as normal docs, spreadsheets, email, etc. should pose no
problem.

People from either office could be working on any file at different times of
the day. Anyone else had to deal with this?
