Comment Running a web server using a WISP (Score 1) 256

Several years ago I switched from cable to a local WISP in order to run my own web server. For about the same price as cable service but at a little slower speed I was able to get a static IP and permission to run my own web and email servers. The speed is fine for the low bandwith sites that I host. The previous cable provider would not let me run a web server unless I paid several hundred dollars a month for a business account. The service is generally as reliable as cable. During a recent hurricane we were down only a few hours while most cable users were down for several days. The help desk is much nicer to deal with then the big cable company's was.
