Starting a WISP? IP ArchiTechs can help!
Starting a WISP is exciting! Whether it’s a homegrown ISP to connect a few neighbors or plans for a greenfield WISP with large expansion goals, IP ArchiTechs can help guide you on that journey. Some of the challenges when building a service provider network are figuring out where to start, how much to spend, what equipment/vendors to use, what protocols to run and how to make it all grow. Fixed wireless has its own set of challenges because WISPs often use a variety of radios, frequencies and vendors to account for diverse RF environments and topography. And yet they all need to work together in a cohesive design that performs well for subscribers. That’s where IPA’s team of experts can help! Our team is comprised of experts with decades of experience in business, operations, isp mergers & acquisitions, rf design/planning and service provider network engineering.

We understand the design challenges start-ups face
In our webinar on separation of network functions (a network design philosophy) we review common startup WISP design flaws and solutions. We discuss:
– Why “simplicity” can cost you
– How business goals influence design
– Why separation of functions is ideal
Avoid costly design mistakes that other startups frequently make
Startup WISPs that aren’t designed for expansion but successfully grow in the first few years often find themselves frequently redesigning the network. This is a costly and disruptive process. Learn what NOT to do:
– Capacity pain points
– Fragile and inconsistent redundancy
– Increased complexity
– Limited ability to scale
Start out fast & agile with a cost-effective solution that scales
Putting a validated design in on day one is a huge timesaver for startups. No need to guess which hardware and configuration will work best. IPA has already figured that out for you.
Advantages of using a validated design:
– Avoid redesign and the high costs that go with it
– Simplicity that meets business goals
– High availability and failover are predictable
– Scale on demand with minimal disruption
