I am using an RB2011 as a VPLS NID to provide 100meg DIA to a customer.
It works great.

We do similar and if the customer doesnt have these things at the
termination point we offer a lease or purchase for the extended equipment.
I still cant get away from Mikrotiks CCR routers instead of the latter.

That pricing is similar to what we charge when using PTP600 directly back to a fiber fed
"hub site". At the customer site, we install an APC 1500 UPS (with SNMP
management) and a Juniper SRX router - fully managed and monitored from NOC.

Base Price:
1yr Contract: $1980/mo
2yr Contract: $1870/mo
3yr Contract: $1760/mo
We negotiate discounts from those prices. Usually end up giving customers 20-30% off to
"make a deal". DIA services are always negotiable. Sometimes we have to add to
them to deal with all the upgrades necessary to get to the customer.
Install depends on required equipment. Airfiber is usually not a big deal.
Licensed link could be the cost of the link spread over term of contract.
You also have to consider what it takes from your backbone to deliver that. How
many sites from your upstream is it? Do you need to charge enough to cover
future upgrades to your backhauls, routers, etc? What about upgrades to UPSes
in the path?
Just some things to consider.

No Comcast here. No AT&T here. Others as well.
Only real competition at this site would be bonded T1 lines. Qty 1 T1
in this location would be ~~ $500 per month.
There might be another Wireless provider that could get through the
hole in the trees, but the number would be very, very limited.

What are Comcast\TW\AT&T\Zayo\etc. selling 100 megs for? That's where
you want to sell your 100 megs, assuming you're not losing your ass
at that rate.

We have a new subscriber we're providing dedicated 24x24 service
right now.
He's asked for a quote for dedicated 100x100 service. The link is ~~
8.5 miles. Right now, I'm thinking we need to put in a licensed link.
The site is active with 2 PMP450 APs, and I do not want to interfere
on a site with relatively tight spectrum demands, so anything in 5.8
is out of the question.
I don't really need technical advice, but I'm looking for advice on
how to price this. Typically, we charge 30-50 % of the equipment
cost and then price the monthly recurring to recover the remaining
equipment cost over 12 months. However, I would like to entertain alternatives.
