The point for this is by a reduced cost (just for failover security), we can sell many more of them (like selling insurance).
We already have all the code written to do whatever we want/need to monitor/manage that. I am not concerned with that part.

Otherwise, it would be a pain to police it. Does it have to fall below a certain % of use, or a certain data usage per month? I have seen someone sell a backup connection, and then they load balanced them. I'd just sell them a connection...use it how you want.

Here, Comcast has a strong foothold on business connections, but they go down occasionally (like anyone else would), so there is an opportunity there. With Cloud based solutions, VoIP solutions, redundancy for a business would make sense. So the questions would be, what do you charge relative to your normal rate for a backup (failover) connection only? Paul Paul McCall, Pres.
