I'll repeat the same.. you're lucky if you can get it at 1000/ 6 meg.
I pay 1000/ 1Mb here.. it's crazy.

the REAL rural areas we pay over $1000/mth for 6 meg connections.

Re: [WISPA] Akamai / other caching servers
I have two OC-3 connections (155Mbps) and one OC-12 connection
(620Mbps)... and even at those levels, I still average $50/meg as my
hard cost. I am selling 10Mbps x 10Mbps dedicated connections to
businesses and schools, etc. for $500/month.

too would love to know that formula. I doubt if it would work in rural
Tama County Iowa. Most businesses are agribusiness (i.e. farmers) and
I already have most of them in my footprint. My biggest obstacle right
now is finding cheap bandwidth. So even a statement that bandwidth is
cheap right now does not apply to me.
I wish I had
$500/mth business customers to sign up everyday!

CHEAP now... time is still the most valuable thing in this business...
I can spend hours messing, tweaking, fighting, adjusting, etc. a cache
proxy, or in that same amount of time I can go install a business
connection for $500/month and pay for ANY additional bandwidth it may
save me. And I can do this every day. :)

(another box or two to maintain, some sites don't like to be cached,
customer support calls, web sites blocking a certain IP address because
ALL the traffic from your network is coming from the cache server IP,
etc.).

create an ACL to deny caching them. Still too much to maintain? Deny
caching all content by default, then create an ACL which only allows
caching of sites you choose.

With this your proxy can be fully transparent appearing as if the
requests were sourced directly from a client instead of your Squid box.
