We have a storage node in a remote office, and have a 512K circuit
between.

When I first implemented the storage node, I was concerned about the
bandwidth between the two sites.  We are only backing up one Exchange
5.5 machine on the storage node, and the network traffic between the
Networker server and storage node has been minimal.  I'm not sure how
the traffic would look like with 5+ clients at the remote site using the
remote storage node.
