Because IgniteNet is cheaper than anyone else out there. The only reason we all know their name is because their 60GHz radios deliver gigabit speeds for at least tenth of the cost of anyone else in the game. Why do you mention fiber?

The average CPE cost is much less than the Ignitenet radios. I’m not running fiber, which is also cost prohibitive without deep pockets. A good ROI for a WISP is 6-12 months. For fiber it’s 5-6 years. The reason being you’ll get many more service calls with wireless, as well as less consistent speeds. Fiber is solid and you don’t have to replace as many electronics as often. So I’m not sure why you laugh when I say Ignitenet is cost prohibitive.
