In my home, I want unlimited electicity, natural gas, and water too! On Sat, Nov 7, 2009 at 4:24 PM, Travis Johnson <t...@ida.net> wrote: The cellular guys don't charge by the minute... I have an unlimited plan on my cell phone. I can also get unlimited text and internet access for $9.95/mo extra. People don't want to guess what their internet bills are going to be from month to month. Would you want that at your own home?

Travis Johnson wrote: Hi, You are talking about having to add additional resources (radius, etc.) to track it. Then you have to bill it. Then you get to deal with the phone calls from users that say "My computer wasn't even turned on during those times. Remove the charge or I will go elsewhere." So, even that one extra phone call costs you money (because you have to think about scaling). Imagine if you have 100x the number of customers you have now... does the same solution work? Probably not. The easier solution would be to call that customer and get them to upgrade to the next plan up (which would provide higher speed as well). This works very well for us... and then I have that guaranteed extra income each month, even if they don't use it. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WISPA Wants You!
