I'd say you could go as high as 175 dialups per T1. You do want to
keep in mind that other traffic is likely to transit the link though.
You'll likely be sucking down a news feed, hosting web sites, and of
course, there will be those customers that host warez and other bandwidth
intensive garbage, and of course, there will be those on you LAN that love
the speed. :-)
If I can be of any further help, please say so.
