said by ninjatutle :If I were MetroFi, I would go in at night and reclaim all the equipment. Rent a fleet of bucket trucks and Portland would wouldn't even know it happened. It's not like anyone is utilizing it right now. Bad idea! The network no longer belongs to Metro-Fi (even if they had the resources and will to remove them, as was required by their aggreement with the city of Portland) Portland needs to 1}find another provider to take over and complete the network (VERY unlikely given the business model failed, the network rarely worked as planned, and the current economic situation.) OR 2} pay to have them removed ASAP (each of those AP's is drawing 9-16 watts, 24/7/365 even while doing nothing) A bill that no one is currently paying (well, city of Portland will get stuck for it) |
