Send a letter welcoming them to the family. Outline some of the steps you have taken to improve service, and that your company takes a very proactive approach to network monitoring, uptime, and performance. Let them know how to get customer support and how to contact your various departments. Taking these steps will increase retention, and sets the tone for what they can expect from their new provider. Additionally, describe the new plan options are and what plan they will be transferred to. If someone doesn't like their new plan, let them know what the upgrade options are. They can choose to upgrade or go somewhere else.

The previous owners set up the system using Rocket M900 using 20MHz channels on everything, stomping all over itself and everyone else in the band. I changed that, did my best to stop the self interference, smaller channels, etc... This was just a tiny bit of back story to show what I've gotten myself in to. Everyone has unlimited access to their 10Mb fiber, which I have replaced by tying it into my network. There was no traffic shaping, no speed limits, no QoS. Most of them aren't heavy users, just a couple that run torrents 24/7. The P2P folks have been limited already. Not terribly worried about upsetting them. I'm a bit concerned I'm going to anger my new customers by matching the same config I have for my system of 1Mb/4Mb. How did/would you guys handle situations like this? My main QoS at the edge prevents any one person from hogging all the bandwidth. I'm currently torn between QoS at the tower and uncapping the CPE or limiting the CPE as I've always done. -- All parts should go together without forcing.
