we have a campground running conduit from the tower where they get our service to the middle of a campsite cluster to a pole theyre putting in. We know we will put fiber in the conduit, thats as far as we have gotten. We have the option to monetize, but instead are letting the campground mother just handle tokens. looking at cambium if cnmaestro has an old lady friendly interface for this side (just generate a token for x days and be done, they said they probably wont monetize either) about all we will do is put our *provided by logo on the splash page
