[WISPA] FCC changes

[John J. Thomas]

Let's talk about this for a minute.

When I signed up for my $24.95 DSL, ATT *gave* me a free DSL modem- if the rules change, that won't be able to happen anymore.

If you, as a WISP say here are your options

1. Pay $299 install, and the client can do whatever they want
2. Pay $49 install and a *lease* fee of $22 per month, and the WISP owns the equipment

How will you lose?

>I agree Travis. This will "hurt." The FCC seems to be overstepping their boundaries alot the last few months on many issues, and this is another area I think they should stay out of. Just my 2 cents.
