Travis,
You bring up an entirely different topic... Whether its worth it to a small
WISP or for any company to accept the money.
But the comment I was originally responding to was related to big companies

The big companies that win grants will have all the same limitations

We have an online backup program. It hasn't been very popular yet.
We also bill per bit. Let them do those huge backups. I make money on them
too! grin
If they do the backups on MY system they do NOT pay the per bit fees.

On that note, I do percieve you will see more ISP's start their own
competitive services like online backup, etc. I wonder if the
companies will ever get smart and offer to pay ISP's to install
mirrored servers on their network?

We don't promise the integrity of the data. It's a BACKUP. Chances are
slim that we AND they will loose it at the same time though.
Our goal is to get a couple of servers built and put a few TB of storage in
them. But so far we don't even need gigs of space... shrug

I've ccd Brandon for you. He set up a system for us. Cost was less than
$500 including some customization. It uses netflow data from our routers.
This system has been GREAT.

I second DansGuardian. If you are looking for an easy-to-use
configuration tool for it, download/install Webmin (www.webmin.org) then
install the DansGuardian webmin module

In my heart, I know you are right. The nature of our business is we
buy bandwidth wholesale, and then resell it to others who can't
afford to buy dedicated bandwidth. We factor an oversubscription
rate, and count on bursty, short lived traffic from users that share
the bandwidth.

The center pin on one of the connectors is shorter than it should be, is
a possibility.
I have seen this more than once. The pin is almost long enough to touch
but not tightly. When there is an active signal, i.e., the radio, there
must be enough capacitance coupling to broadcast, but the mV

I have to agree. It seem that these hardware boxes that try to do 'all
in one' services (Routing, NAT, Firewall, AV, Content-Filtering,
Spam)... seem to fall on their face. I know of a consultant buddy of
mine who implemented it, and hated every second of it. He is still
cursing at it when
Ryan, when you agree to offer service, that becomes your responsibility,
and when someone is paying for it, they have a reasonable expectation of
the service they are paying for.
With that said, is it crazy expensive to get a 2 x T-1 where you are?
Maybe a T-3 is stupid expensive, but if you

Unless your equipment is tolerant of voltage swings, you will still
probably want a DC-DC regulator, but that will likely be more efficient
than a 12/24volt to 120 volt inverter.

Scottie,
I obviously agree with you. Curious though - why would you say there
was a need for bandwidth based pricing before 1997? The was very
little broadband then and bandwidth was not an issue. Busy signals on

Are you willing to setup a server for their backups?
For home users, Mozy charges $4.95 per month. If you setup your own
backup server, you would have the initial expense of a server with big
drive space, but you could charge $4.95 and at least save money on your
upstream bandwidth.
