Re: Homebrew DSL said by ctech99:Wow thats perfect, and now that you have a cheap lead on poles. Lucky. I was told down here they are $30/pole/year. Yeah, it just happens to be the rate they set like 30 years ago when the CATV providers wanted to use the poles, and they said it wouldn't be fair to charge us more than they were charging someone else. They admitted they should probably revisit them someday, but that the increase probably wouldn't be significant. Heck, even if they raised the rates to double or triple, I would still view it as very reasonable.
said by ctech99:Is that community you are looking at local? Take me along!!! ;P It's Crosslake Communications in Crosslake, MN. They have been very open to talking about their project and were more than willing to give me a tour and show me what they have done, and what they wish they would have done differently. The only thing better than learning from your own mistakes is learning from someone else's.  |
