I mean this is true... "new wisp" doesn't mean a quality new WISP.

Well he did say "new wisp"
Maybe they put a DD-WRT router in Tupperware on the roof with a Pringles can
yagi.
Or they think it's smart to run wifi with a WDS mesh.  Every customer is a
POP and grows my network....so easy!
Or they said "up to 200Mb" and actually delivered 5Mb
Or the whole thing runs on a cable modem in his mom's basement

....or any number of other dumb ideas people thought were smart when they
too were a "new wisp".
I bet we can all think up a huge list of dumb things we've seen, heard, or
maybe done ourselves.

Why did they come back?  A properly running WISP should be as stable as a
fiber connection.

We rarely get service calls on wireless -- usually it's something related to
the customer's router or interference they have caused....
that doesn't change with fiber.

Had our first fiber customer disconnect to go to a new WISP in the area.
They said the new service was half the price of ours and they got a
price lock for three years.
Yeah, OK, but we will have your service on standby any time you want
to reactivate it.
The disconnect was Friday.  The reconnect was this morning...
I know that is not music to the ears of WISP only companies, but I
gotta tell you, you never get service calls with fiber.
