Aha, distributed mesh network, I assume that means routing your traffic via other Winston devices. I assumed they would need a cloud server function, but I take it their “cloud” is a mesh of other Winston users. I think Ooma started out that way, if you weren’t using your POTS line, it

He says their tech support tells him CPE - Winston - Router. Maybe that would work if "CPE" is actually something like a cable modem / residential gateway. But in that case the gateway would normally have WiFi and the customer wouldn't have another router. Why am I hearing the jingle

We've paid anything from $5.50/foot for plowing up to $45/foot for a difficult bore. That's contractors, not in-house. It's so situational that it's dangerous to assume a particular number.  You need someone experienced in that work in that locality to drive the route and give you an estimate.

If you are talking just the construction, not the materials I generally get $4.50 to $5.50/foot for plowing. I know others that will do it for around $2.75 for larger jobs. Concrete/Rock I quote at $50/foot and currently, at the moment, I am losing money on a 2000’ stretch at that rate. 30 feet

Concrete: depends on density of buried utilities, traffic, how much concrete that needs to be cut. I believe average for a few-days project is $15-30 per foot. Dirt next to road: in much of North America, $30-$50K per mile for rural or low-density urban. On Thu, Sep 12, 2019 at 3:02 PM Gino A.
