We are a 2-man company providing hosted PBX solution to businesses. So far we have done reasonably well, and got enough businesses to make a decent profit to pay our bills.
The hurdle we are facing is getting decent Internet connection at reasonable price to our clients. A new company calls us, and say, they want 4 lines in their office. We ask them to get any kind of Internet connection at their premise. The problem is they cannot get DSL without a telephone connection, and Cox charges them a lot for cable! In fact it is cheaper for them to get both Internet and telephone service from Cox than Internet only. Outrageous but that is fact of life. We lose a lot of business because of this. We are exploring if we can become an ISP and provide DSL connection ourselves. We have about $100K at our disposal. We do not have much idea about what is involved in becoming an ISP and how to go about it. Does any one of you have any suggestion? Thanks, Jacob. -- _____________________________________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- asterisk-biz mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-biz
