If you want a 'real' static ip, expect to pay double to triple what the BS>base service costs. Cable Modem operator do have commercial services available at least Road Runner does. Which in this area start at around $145.00 per month... Hawaii being the farthest from any landmass on the planet.. We have to pay a premium on or bandwidth because our feed comes across the ocean on fiber and they need ships to repair them instead of a guy in a truck.. Luckily not as often though. Here are the prices we pay for uncapped/unmetered bandwidth in the following flavors. Cost has actually went up 2.2% for the last 2 years. 56k Frame $119.00 plus .46c per mile to the nearest central office. T-1- 1.544 megabits per second (24 DS0 lines) $828.00/mo. T-3 - 43.232 megabits per second (28 T1s) $20,400./mo. All prices include non-continental US surcharge Todd... --- þ OLXWin 1.00b þ http://www.bbsnets.com/ The URL says it all * Origin: BBS Networks @ www.bbsnets.com 808-839-5016 (1:10/345) .
