Transport, rent, dollars, it is all consideration.
We've done this with some of the networks that were built for the mobility solutions I've deployed. The local ISP is handling the maintenance of the network for a $1500 or so monthly fee and they are paying a $1500/month access fee for the use of the network. The city/county governments will allow other ISPs on the network for the same $1500/month access fee given the same limitations the existing ISP lives with. Others have set the mantenance/rental so high it will NEVER make it feasible for other ISPs to rent access. Maybe not a "fair" business practice, but it is a smart one. -- ******************************************************************** * Butch Evans * Professional Network Consultation* * http://www.butchevans.com/ * Network Engineering * * http://www.wispa.org/ * WISPA Board Member * * http://blog.butchevans.com/ * Wired or Wireless Networks * ******************************************************************** -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WISPA Wants You!
