We sell the users a Pepwave CPE for use indoors. Inexpensive and works well. Plus it gives them a repeater hotspot with WPA in their house.
It is a great solution for muni mesh systems.We have 1 city with 70 Cisco 1522 Muni APs. 75% of the regular users have bought the Pepwave/Peplink.

It is tough for a laptop to shoot back with a wall/ceiling very close to it. You'll need to define your support for it first - price is heavily dependent on that. If some customer has all kinds of issues with their laptop are you fixing it for them? If you aren't fixing it then any dollar you charge is profit. If you're on the phone for an hour fixing it, is that $15/weekend worth it? What about $50/weekend? At 50/weekend no one is buying it.

One town is kind of a tourist area with shops and the like. I already have one town that I make about $100 extra revenue off of and there I sell a Monthly Service for $20. But was looking at options to sell to the weekend user or the weekly business traveler or relatives stopping by grandmas for the week and was wondering what others are doing. > > Steve Barnes > RC-WiFi Wireless Internet Service > > > -----Original Message----- > From: wireless-boun...@wispa.org [mailto:wireless-boun...@wispa.org] On Behalf Of Josh Luthman > Sent: Wednesday, June 02, 2010 1:52 PM > To: WISPA General List > Subject: Re: [WISPA] HotSpots > > What kind of venue is this?
