I would like to know what kind of equipment you plan on using to deliver those 
speeds at that price reliably.  I don’t think anything will do that in pmp mode 
that I would consider business class quality.  So are you going to be using a 
tone of license links at $7000 grand a pop?  Even at 100 mbps plan, pmp 450 can 
not really do that, so what is your plan?  Please don’t say Ubnt.

Yes, commercial service mainly.  I might consider some residential, but I'm 
going for the opposite end of the spectrum as I did when I started in this 
industry 15 years ago.  Back then, I wanted to deliver the cheapest and lowest 
cost service to anyone and everyone.  Now I'm focused on providing only the 
top, highest quality service to the clients who are willing to pay the price.  
Oh.. and under promise, over deliver.

From a customer perspective, I got a call yesterday from Comcast, to upgrade my 
65Mbps to 150Mbps for $3/Month more than I'm currently paying and it would 
include TV and the online streaming/subscriptions, etc, for $69.95/Month.  They 
pump that to $85/Month after the 12 month contract is up.  They had a 
non-contract deal for $79/Month, same 150Mbps plan.

However, my business consulting clients pay $120-200/Month for just Internet 
speeds from Comcast ranging from 18Mbps low end to 80Mbps high end at 
$200-205/month.  That's the market I'll be after.

have become very “entitled” in the past 5-7 years.

Listening in for now.  Thought I'd pop on a couple lists since I'm designing a 
new WISP and going to be bringing in some investors in the next few months.

Going to be focusing on delivering 100-300Mbps plans or better (yes, via 
wireless) and will be doing some fiber planning for long-term.

Working on getting the first GigE backhaul and a few POP's allocated.

Hello again!  I've been mostly consulting and doing other things the last 5-7 
years, but wireless is still a passion for me and I love it so much I'm getting 
back into it full-time.
