Re: How are local wisps affected

said by jdubber See Profile :

I was wondering how local wisps were affected when bigger companies take over and offer free wi-fi service, such as the google wireless in San Francisco and also the town of Mountain View in California. Please respond if you are familiar with this as a large company may be offer free service in a town where I work for a local wisp.
Mountain view, a rather flat bay side urban expanse is largely served by Comcast and SBC/ATT/NSA, albeit with spotty coverage. WISPs operate mostly in the coastal hills where there is no other service.
Not many WISPs are brave or foolish to take on the incumbents who can repair or extend cables and offer $12 service.
