Re: Cox and wireless
That's a great idea. I had great service from the T-1 when I had an office here from March through August. I got that right off the ISP's backbone (the ISP was my landlord). And the guy who owns the ISP is a friend. I think we shouldn't have much trouble coming up with something. I'll call him and shoot for a lunch soon.
Credit where due: CoxAtHome is always fast, and we live in a neighborhood with a lot of people who are also subscribers. I check the bandwidth often. Right now I'm on a laptop hooked up over an 802.11b wireless router/hub with three other computers on it. It justclocked (cutting and pasting from the other browser window)... 2886(down)/286(up) kbps. I'm not fond of asymmetrical speeds, but the 286kbps number is close to three times what I got over my old IDSL line (the best I could get at the old place, and probably the best I can get in DSL here, more than 3 miles from the nearest phone company switch.
But... this shared T1 idea is a really good one. Thanks!
