Re: [AFMUG] [OT][Politics]

Come on Chuck... we all know this is politics. The candidates say whatever they think they can get away with, in order to get a vote. Then after they win, they don't have to do any of the things they said they would do. I'd love to see a system where if a candidate makes a promise, wins the e

Re: [AFMUG] TowerPoint Capital

I have had two different companies like this approach me in the last year about a Tmobile lease I have on a tower. The catch is that they are taking a 99 year lease, regardless of the terms of your lease with the provider. It's not a bad deal if you want a lump sum amount (after you negotiate w

[AFMUG] Ammon City fiber

Hi, This is a small "town" that is directly connected to my hometown of Idaho Falls. The road I drive to work on, the west side of that street is Idaho Falls, the east side is Ammon. We had a lot of wireless customers in the Ammon area when I was a WISP. They have been working on this fiber p

About 5+ years ago, I had a friend that built a search engine front end. You would input your search, and it would query Google, Yahoo, MSN and a few others, and then based on the results from all of them, rank the results you would see based on how the other engines saw the world. It was very

Re: [AFMUG] Ammon City fiber

Hi, That is correct... all the providers bring their connections into the main NOC for the city (brand new facility). So you have to get transport there, but then you are billing the customer directly for whatever services they want from you. It looks like 100Mbps residential will be around $

It's actually very affordable, if you only have a single QB company. You have to pay the same price for each company... so if you have more than one or two companies, it's MUCH cheaper to run your own version on a dedicated server. I'd love to move everything to their cloud service... but I ha
