Or if this is their 5G fixed wireless product, maybe they are contracting out installation, but that sounds like one-time revenue with no residuals.
I haven’t really seen any big carrier fixed wireless product succeed without indoor modems.

If you really can’t be remotely competitive with AT&T’s offering, the best thing you can do is give sufficient advance notice to allow the customers to switch gracefully. What keeps you from rebuilding with new equipment for better service? If you could do that, maybe refocus on a segment of the local market that AT&T will not serve well. I find that business customers often hate dealing with the big phone companies, who tend to offer a one-size-fits-all solution generally intended for residential. If you are able to offer reliable service, static IPs, onsite VoIP PBX, networking support, and work with their computer/networking guys, you may be able to hold on to your business customers or even grow in that segment. Realizing they will probably have cellphones from one of the big carriers. Not necessarily AT&T.

They're providing wireless service on top of a portion of my network, and the local municipality isn't cooperating with installing any towers. I can't really extend in to the area, or rebuild with new equipment for better service. I don't just want to turn these customers off if there's some value to flipping them to AT&T. tim -- AF mailing list [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com -- Lewis Bergman 325-439-0533 Cell _____ -- AF mailing list [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com
