No. There is no good reason to run fiber through here. It's not on the
way to anywhere.

There might be another wireless provider that could get them hooked
up, but I couldn't speculate who. They have a very narrow window
through their trees to a tiny section of the valley.
The other option would be running fiber up from the valley. Where
they're at, it would be an approximate 15 mile fiber run. How much is
that?

I still cant get away from Mikrotiks CCR routers instead
of the latter.

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.

Only real competition at this site would be bonded

There might be another Wireless provider that
could get through the
hole in the trees, but the number would be very,
very limited.

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.
