Well, just a assumption, but it is around $1000 or so in most areas (last time I checked into it)...Aside from that, I don't know.

Yes, a friend of mine in the states was quoted from around $700 - $1200 for a T1 line.
Im not sure if the above really helps, but i hope it will give you a rough idea.█ Europhase UK Limited - XEN/OpenVZ UK/US Virtual Private Servers | R1Soft Backups for Web Hosts

Don't forget local loop charges. In some instances, they can get fairly expensive...

I just got a great quote yesterday from a guy at broadband.com.
It's for an ACC business (AT&T) line, and it comes with a Cisco 2620 and newsfeeds. The quote is for $987 and includes loop. That's for a full buck and a half. The frac pricing is very nice too. This is a great price, because we're in rural north Georgia, and ports are kind of hard to come by. I'm sure it would be just as good, if not better, in Ashville.
If you want to contact the guy, his name is Ron Andrews, and his number is 202.595.1500 ext 513.WeedBiz™ provides comprehensive internet marketing services for the emerging legal cannabis industry in the United States and Canada.

I was just quotes about $900+/mo for T1 out to the boonies, including local loop charges. There's some serious competition going on right now. Prospeed is doing $499 T1's somewhere in Mass.

My uncle runs an isp in tucson. He charges like $250 (I know this is off topic sorry). But what do most phone companies charge for the line?

It doesn't seem to me that a T1 would be the best bang for your buck. At a flat grand, that works out to abot $33 per month per machine. And that's figuring that all of them run flawlessly during business hours the entire month, and that you have them all full a good portion of the time.
Now...and this is pure speculation coming from someone who has never done an internet cafe...It seems to me that 90% or so of the traffic would be inbound. If that's the case, then this is where dsl and cable really shine. You could get a couple of dsl/cable connections and a router and be in business.WeedBiz™ provides comprehensive internet marketing services for the emerging legal cannabis industry in the United States and Canada.

confirmed. i know someone who runs an internet cafe in philly and she has a dsl connection which is just fine for what she is doing, though she has less boxen. you can get a lot of pipe for half the price of a t1 if they dont have an fcc-mandated sla.

DSL would be a great start..
I'm way north of you and have sprint dsl.. but I'm looking at 3 megs down (2x a t1 down) and 512 up (1/3rd a t1 up) and I pay $180 for it all.
The service is awesome.. I've had it for a year.. 10 ms 7 hops out, yada yada.. I used to have a t1 in my house and this is MUCH better... granted the uploading isn't as nice, but the downloading.. oooo the downloading .
If you do decide to go t1, it should be ~250 / month for a loop with a 3 year commit, based on 0 mile ds1.. it will go up based on how many co's you cross (central offices).
Expect ~250 per 768k (so $500 for full t1 bw).. that's a bit on the high side, but that is generally what your going to wind up paying with local ISP's.Joseph Marcelletti

T1
A T1 is 24 telephone lines. How much will you use for internet bandwidth and how much for phone ?
SEO needed .. email or PM me.

Umm why come out with that above?
adsl alone can handle like 6mbit down or something.█ Europhase UK Limited - XEN/OpenVZ UK/US Virtual Private Servers | R1Soft Backups for Web Hosts

DSL sounds like the perfect solution to me unless you're planning on running servers too. And you can connect 2 DSL pipes to a Nexland Pro800 Turbo too - $350.

Hmmm... The last T1 I got was for $399 (loop included). I'll call my provider and see if they can run one in Ashville.
