Re: Bandwidth Cable Hey thank you both for the replies. A little bit of new information there about Mediacom fiber. I can check on that on Monday.
I guess what I was saying is more like would we get caught? The reverse dns name entry shows something like ATT of course if you go to Airin the IPs trace to Mediacom. From what I can see there is no port 25 filtering. Of course you and I would know that it's a Mediacom connection but I think it would be unlikely if Mediacom would find out unless someone reported you. Up to a certain scale on a small time micropop I know there must be wisps reselling these kind of circuits don't really expect anyone would admit it. Also not the most honest thing, although a good justification could be made about the morality of dedicated circuit costs Seems like the pricing model for legitimate bandwidth is set right at the point where the big guys always make the money and keep us little guys all struggling. |

There is NO justification to base YOUR business on reselling a connection that you do not have the RIGHT to resell. If you think the cost is too high then don't sign the contract. Many WISPs are able to provide service using lines that they can legitimately resell and some acutally make a profit! 
There is no difference in this business, big guys always get a price cut! |
