Does he have any contacts with the airport's IT group? Find out what provider(s) the airport uses and contact them to see if they'd be willing to provide them with service or see if they can figure out a way to buy internet directly from the airport. Another option would be checking to see if there are any WISPs that operate in the area that he could get service from.

They currently have a T1 transport that they've outgrown. I was wondering if anyone has any recommendations on other options within Southern California that wouldn't cost an arm and a leg. They only have about 5 computers and 5 VOIP phones but 3Mbps is hard to deal with when large files are being downloaded/uploaded simultaneously. They've tried calling to get DSL and Cable and they are striking out on all site surveys through Verizon and Time Warner.
