I am not sure, but I imagine that the only difference between the
residential and business DSL lines is the Terms of Service and

interesting is that even with the business DSL line, you are still not
allowed to run servers or use "excessive bandwidth," according to the
ToS. A
subjective terms that lots of mainstream ISPs like to use to take
your money
for a service they do not want you to use.
Well they specifically talk of company based mail and web servers on
their business web page.
There is a difference between a "company" based service and a
reseller's service.
It may seem like a legal hair, and it is. But the TOS stuff frequently
makes an explicit reference to the difference.
