Re: My own mini-ISP
(Thank you Mods for moving this)
The way I understand it is, that every IP that is attached to the T1 gets 1.544Mbps, not the whole line (i.e. 1.5 Mbps Cable/DSL). I figure only 50-100 houses would go for this route, after equipment and stuff, I would have to charge at least $60/month.
Anymore ideas? |

| Yeah unless you have lots of time and want to make this into atleast a part time business don't pursue it. wireless is more complex than a simple land line. plus your forgetting that radios are $100-500 depending on what you get, antenna's are about $50 each, LMR cable is not very cheap, etc. You also don't realize that you have to manage this ISP, if just one person uses bittorrent with out any limitations set in place by you they can bring everything to a crawl.
+ you have to be allowed to resell the T1

Also wanted to clear this up: you are wrong; it is EXACTLY like Cable/DSL. The pipe is 1.544, regardless of the # of IPs. You will be sharing that amongst everyone. |

There are many ways to manage your bandwidth...
