Re: [WISPA] Tower "general contractors"

Thats not bad. Many times they want 10,000. It should not be hard to get a 5 million umbrella. Any insurance company will do it. The catch is 1) Get your primary as a 1 million coverage, and then get teh Umbrella as an additional 4 million. The umbrella is a seperate line item. What this m

Re: [WISPA] Considering ARIN and buying our own IPs....IPv4? IPv6

The first thing to understand is if you are prepaired to adequately route with your own IPs. There is a clear advantage to ahving your own IPs, from the perspective that you will no longer be held hostage by your upstream, having the freedom to be portable between transit providers. However, m

Re: [WISPA] Considering ARIN and buying our own IPs....IPv4? IPv6

You need an IPv6 compatible upstream to put that to use. That said, getting an IPv6 allocation isn't a bad idea if you have the possibility of getting IPv6 transit, even if you don't. That way you're ready when the time comes. It'll be here before you know it. -- Mike Hammett Intelli
