             VIASOURCE WILL CONTINUE TO OPERATE AND SERVE CUSTOMERS

               GE CAPITAL TO PROVIDE $10 MILLION IN DIP FINANCING
                       TO FUND ONGOING COMPANY OPERATIONS

                 ---------------------------------------------


         FORT LAUDERDALE, FLA., NOVEMBER 15, 2001 - Viasource Communications,
Inc. (Nasdaq: VVVV), a leading nationwide broadband technology deployment
organization, today announced that it has voluntarily filed petitions in Florida
for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. GE Capital
Corp., Viasource's principal lender, has agreed to provide $10 million
debtor-in-possession (DIP) financing. The DIP financing will supplement the
Company's cash flow and allow Viasource to continue serving customers and paying
employees and creditors while it restructures.

         "With GE Capital's support, we intend to use the Chapter 11 protection
to keep Viasource firmly on track to financial health while continuing to
provide customers our highest level of service," said President and Chief
Operating Officer Colin McWay. "Over the past several months, we have made
significant strides toward, and essentially completed, a strategic restructuring
to address administrative inefficiencies and better integrate and streamline the
business. However, given our current cash position, filing for Chapter 11
protection is now a necessary step to complete the turnaround while continuing
to support operations in the field and serve our customers.

         "The reliable service that Viasource provides is still in demand, and
with our nationwide network of over 2,200 field managers and technicians, we can
continue to meet customers' needs. To further strengthen our commitment to
customers and ensure consistent, seamless service across all of our markets, we
are focusing our resources and support on our employees in the field - the
people who make the critical difference in satisfying customers."

                                     (more)



         Noting that motivated employees are key to the success of the Company's
future, McWay said employees' compensation plans, including medical benefits,
would remain in place.

         Said Stephen W. Hipp, Vice President of GE Capital's Communications
Group, "We support Viasource's decision to use the Chapter 11 process to help it
become a more competitive, more profitable company. We intend to work closely
with the Board and management to help the Company execute a successful
turnaround and realize its full potential."

         Additionally, the Company announced that it has retained the
LoftusGroup LLC, one of the country's premier turnaround consulting firms, to
assist management through the Chapter 11 process.
