      and the worse, the maximum bandwith that you can have with this copper wire is 4 Mbs download and 0.5 Mbs upload

      Now that is really awful. Wow.

          why they implement this policy, because normally businesses who should have priority than homes

            Where is the remote office? How many people are at each? Would a central file server in a datacenter make more sense so that each side gets downloads at 4Mb/s rather than using the 512Kb/s channel to send files to the other site?

              Or, better yet, move the file server to someone's home, as silly as that sounds, this could actually be a good use of a "residential datacenter."

                the remote site is located in the same city Doha, and we have 2 servers in the main office, on DC and File server, the second is an Application server, and some printers, in the remote office we don't have any server, but i'm planing to setup an additional DC in the branch office to minimize the load upon this weak link, and schedule the replication in the night between the 2 DC

                      in the future we can think about hosting our data (files) in the cloud, but what about Application server, this is the problem we cannot install our application in an outside server in the cloud,

                        🙂 I coined that term in a discussion panel at SpiceWorld 2009.

                          For legal reasons?

                            Very cost effective.

                              honestly i don't know, but i think that the IT company that sold us this application will not accept to install it in an hosted server as far as i can see

                                  Oh, I see. I've never heard of that stipulation in a contract. How do they define hosted? Likely an terminology that would limit hosting would also stop you using a VPN as you are self hosting to another location in that case (to the remote office, you are the hosted application facility.) It would be a bizarre legal stipulation to disallow any enterprise use of the software. Not that that doesn't regularly happen, but it would be seriously bizarre.

                                      No we cannot disclose with this vendor since employees get familiar with the application and also we already bought the licence of multiple users, we cannot cancel anything with them,

                                          concerning the vendor, it is not a well known company, it is called TEBAS (technical business application system) located in egypt
