Re: [WISPA] [Motorola II] Bandwidth Sources.
FWIW if you are in Charter Cable Territory. you might consider joining FISPA...for their program.. Charter is more than happy to sell (For re-sale or own use) Charter Cable Connections across the Charter Territories. Along with Fiber & their new product "Ethernet over Coax". (virtual Ethernet connections ).

Re: [WISPA] [Motorola II] Bandwidth Sources.
We had the flip of that. We purchase IP transit (bandwidth) on GigE from the local operating company of a national cable operator. They were supposed to give us IP space with the circuit but IP allocations are handled by the national group and they refused on the grounds that they don't sell to ISPs. Good thing we have our own IP space. On Thu, Aug 5, 2010 at 4:40 PM, RickG wrote: > My sales guy almost got fired over selling me fiber.

My sales guy almost got fired over selling me fiber. His marketing group (regional) was fighting with the local group. In the end, the regional chief came to visit our NOC.

Re: [WISPA] [Motorola II] Bandwidth Sources.
I have at least 4 business class connections as well as the fiber but just make sure you have written permission from their sales department or at least acknowledgement that you are in the business of reselling the access. Any salesperson will give you that, they just want the sale. It gets you around their TOS. But keep in mind that it's not dedicated, it's already shared access so way less customers per MB on it.

Man, I wish I had a hosting center close. I am trying to get an idea of how many are actually using wholesale bandwidth compared to DSL/CABLE connections. Some cable providers actually let you resale their business class connections. My partner and I were discussing the pro's and con's of using a Cable business class connection. Money wise, it's a no brainer. I can get a 10 meg connection for around $100/mth and I am paying a little over $1000/mth for 6 meg Metro-E at the moment.
