Apologies if this is not the most appropriate forum for this, but I am not aware of a better list to use. I recently took over responsibility for the network connectivity at an office in downtown Palo Alto (University and Emerson). Unfortunately, and perhaps ironically, the connectivity options here are not as great as I would like- currently they are using DSL, there is no cable service, and lead times for T1's and above are higher than I would like. I have already started the process of getting fiber from the city of Palo Alto between the office and Equinix/S&D/PAIX/529 Bryant, which will resolve the problem. However, the city's time estimate is longer than we need, and experience implies there may be delays. So- I am investigating wireless/free space ISP's in downtown Palo Alto, and also possible options for doing a point-to-point wireless connection between our office and 529 Bryant (I am reaching out to Equinix on this). Any pointers to known good providers, or other suggestions would be very welcome- off list is fine. I am already reaching out to a telecom broker, but wanted to reach out for suggestions. To clarify- I am trying to get either a) rapidly turned up IP transit or b) rapidly turned up point-to-point (presumably wireless) between 529 Bryant/PAIX and the office (University and Emerson).
