They are investors. A Lot of $ are paid to overseas companies for the bandwidth, costs in and out of NZ are quite high. Smaller ISPs have exited the business as costs are too high, you need a LOT of customers paying steady $ per month to average out the data costs. Many people think that all you need is a physical connection to a phone line. You need the agreements as well. |

| 94482 | 2002-10-31 03:43:00 | There is a very good explanation and diagram on this website: http://www.orcon.net.nz/ click 'Products' then 'ISP Services'. If this doesn't explain it clearly enough then you should even be considering running a ISP. | crozier (2004) | ||
