Targeted Marketing

Give us a list of your towers and we will advertise your service directly to the homes that can get coverage based on line of sight from your tower. Pay a small one time fee per tower and then you only pay when you get a new customer. Not available in all areas.

Pricing

  • $100 per tower
  • Per Converted Customer:
    • $99 when customer is successfully installed or
    • $10/month for the first 12 months of service (or as long as the customer keeps the service if they cancel within the first year)

If you attempt to install service at one of the homes that we cleared and it does not have line of sight we will give you a $35 credit for future use with this service. Just make sure you take photos and document the reason for the line of sight failure so we can improve the service.

Send me an email to get started.

Public IP Addresses

Provide public, static IP addresses for your customers for a reasonable fee without dealing with ARIN, BGP or the secondary IP address market.

Pricing TBD

Send me an email if you’re interested in this service.

Installer Training Course

Hands-on training for residential and commercial wireless installers. Designed to take a new hire with little or no experience in the industry and train them to be able to do home Wireless Internet installations on their own. Also includes safety training to keep installers safe and in compliance with OSHA regulations while working on ladders and rooftops.

Trainees will be able to practice installing and aiming equipment and using all tools and safety equipment in a hands-on environment.

Can be customized to specific types of equipment and install methods. Can be customized for specific prior experience (for an installer with experience installing Satellite TV, for example.)

Pricing depends on class size and location Send me an email to get started.

Tinker Kit

This is a kit of pre-configured equipment that you can tinker with to sate your curiosity and to determine if a WISP is feasible for you and your location. Start off with a 30 minute consultation to determine what type of equipment you’d like to try out and what questions you’d like to answer. We will configure the equipment and ship it to you with instructions for a variety of tests you can run.

If you do decide to build a network you’ll already have some of the first equipment you’ll need.

Billed at $99 upfront and $200 + the cost of the equipment before the equipment is shipped to you. If after the consultation you decide not to move forward with the equipment there is no obligation to pay the remaining $200.

Includes 1 month of ISP Support

Consulting

I can help you with any wireless or networking project large or small. Some examples of the types of projects I’ve been involved in:

  • Install high capacity wireless connections between corporate buildings as cheaper option (or redundant backup) to fiber.
  • Light up a temporary high capacity Wi-Fi network for an event
  • Wire existing or newly constructed buildings for reliable Internet delivery
  • Wireless networks in MDU/Apartment/Townhome complexes
