If he's a small network you could probably install in the same area for your 100 bucks per. He wants out anyhow.

He offered to sell me his customers and his network, and then finally he quoted me a price for his network. Not "the customers" but just "the network" and the customer owns his own cpe. I buy the network and inherit his customers - that was the "deal". It works out to $500 / customer. For infrastructure, that seems... well... REALLY high to me. It consists MOSTLY of UBNT stuff and some bandwidth controls, etc, I don't really understand. It's mostly bridged, and has no public IP's, it was apparently NAT'd to a cable connection somewhere. Looking at my rural deployments and the approximate cost- even of the solar/wind powered sites... I'm well under $100/customer for network infrastructure outside of the CPE. Am I the one way different, or is he? Or, is this wide range.... normal? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- WISPA Wants You!
