Hey Listmates,

I am trying to get a general feel for what the industry rate is for installing small outdoor public wireless networks.
I am a college-aged entrepreneur with a handful of commercial wireless network installations under my belt.  I wonder if I am selling myself short.  What are the going rates for Wifi installations these days?  Let me give an
example:

If we had a location like the below that wanted to give people OUTSIDE the two buildings free internet access,  what kind of money are we talking for installation of 2 nodes?  $3,000?  $5,000? $10,000?

They already have high speed internet access and power inside the buildings....
At a glance Im thinking about running steel conduit to the roofs, NEMA enclosures, antenna mast and mount, and firewall and AP configuration....

The lay of the land is simple

Building A is 2 stories high.  Building B is 1 story high.  The rest of the area is flat land.

Thanks to all who feedback.  If I can turn a larger profit, I will be able to buy everyone at the next meeting a round of cokes.   :-)
