I just read a fun little story on slashdot about how att is going to move to a pay per byte scheme with their cable modem subscribers by the end of summer. Pricing isn't down yet. So, I need to find something else. I cannot get DSL, I'm too far from the CO. I can get wireless from sbwireless.net or implex.net. I can get a T1. I can get ???? What else is available? Does anyone know of a place I can get a dirt cheap T1? The cheapest I've found is $699 a month (loop fee is included) for a full T1 with an entire class C. Implex and SBWireless both have hefty setup fees, and I need to get a 40 foot mast to get above my trees. I know there are places in the country that have "WDSL" (wireless dsl), does anyone offer that here? Is it just a fancy name for 802.11? A friend of mine who lives a couple miles from me has a fairly fast DSL line. I was thinking of getting a dry pair to his house ($40 or so a month, also called an alarm pair). You can set up an SDSL modem on each end and achieve 1Mbit/sec across the link. So I'd just route through his network and out his DSL line. It would be nice if we could get a community wireless network set up with users paying a portion of the cost for internet connectivity, a non-profit type thing. But it's hard to find people with the initiative and the finances to get things set up. Jay
