said by tiger72  :said by jjsk8r85 :I've long dreamed of starting a wisp up north for those with no DSL or cable access. Starting capital is the only thing getting in the way I suppose :/ Go to a bank, have a good business plan, and get a $20,000 loan. There ya go. As long as you can prove that your chances for return are high (as they would be in any town of just a thousand or so people) and that the chance for the big cable or phone companies to provide broadband is low, you should be good. You should also do preliminary research and see if anyone in your 'hood needs or wants the service.
