However GTT offered me 1gig from New York office to London Docklands for $2400! Under $2k for p2p to office in Washington DC.
If local internet is $500pcm , get two lines into the building for $1k/month, charge 50 people $30 a month and give them 1 gig and 25:1 contention ratio, plus the cost of dropping the fibre and a router, leaving $6k a year. It's not going to give you a full time job, but will give you some decent internet and a bit of pocket money to look after it.
- notyourday 9y agoThere are actually a lot more interesting things that you can do: Order an SDI video circuit from VZ to one of the interconnect buildings. That's $1.5K/mo but it is delivered as a point to point single mode fiber with VZ gear being plugged in. After they install it and leave unplug VZ gear. Plug in your 10G. You just got yourself a 10G transport for $1.5K/mo.
- notyourday 8y agoRemember, because it is SDI there's no way for VZ gear to know that it is actually unplugged.
- ybloviator 9y ago$4K sounds incredibly overpriced.
