AWS stands for Amazon Web Service - I really meant it as - rent a computer on the internet with 1Gb/s + SSD + static IP for $10/month or less instead of paying overpriced ISP $20/month just for the IP + lousy high latency connection.
Look up the details on: https://aws.amazon.com/ - LightSail is probably what you need https://www.linode.com/ Or any other service you might like In my experience - I get much better value, network speed and service using Linode and AWS than I could from any ISP available to me. And if you need connection to home you can either VPN tunnel thought AWS/Linode or DDNS privately or through one of the free services. Hope that gives you good enough lead.

Finally, When I took my Certificate in Telecom Admin at PCC we had people who were aware of City of Portland reserving one or more strands of Fiber Optic Cable . Did the City roll out any services since then ( After the year ~ 2005) using these strands of Fiber ?

On the contrary. If you think that that is good deal, perhaps because of the 5 IPv4s - I would look into AWS or using IPv6 + DNS + 1Gb/s @ $70/month CenturyLink. For $57.50 per month for the next 3 years fixed contract, I will teach you how to do it and even maintain the setup for you. _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list PLUG@pdxlinux.org http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list PLUG@pdxlinux.org http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
