I'm sorry, but I don't have time for this.  You can check the prior
posts for what my comment concerned, in context.

I'm not sure what your point is.  I mentioned the latency of our 1.1
Mbps SDSL line as being indistinguishable from that of the prior T1,
which alone strongly suggested full duplex.  I'm sorry if that point was
unclear, but I doubt that recapitulating that conversation additional
times will prove a good use of your time or mine.

I'm sorry to say that you still appear not to have understood what I
said:

The 2 Mbps HDSL segment I mentioned is _internal_ to my former firm's
network (as I said before).  It's used to connect the firm's LAN across
a large office building via existing CAT3 cabling.  We used HDSL routers
on either side of the building's telco cable, that being the best we
could do without stringing new cable (which was not an option).

Neither of which bears on what I said.  Perhaps you should ask someone
with a great deal of free time to spend.  I'm afraid I'm running short.
