This thought started when my Property Manager mentioned that they rarely advertise in newspapers any more- they get most clients from the internet. This prompted me to asdd desks to the furnishings for the last two units in my block of flats- most people have some internet access. I suspect that almost all tenants of my furnished units (6 out of 9 now) need internet access.
Someone mentioned that for a student share house, they provided internet access for all rooms- and that they also earned a small profit from this.
I was wondering whether it might be possible, feasible and profitable to:
1. Get an ADSL line for the block. This would probably require an extra phone line
2. Set up ADSL account (unlimited) with subaccounts.
3. Get wireless router and receiver cards.
4. Charge each tenant say $5 pw.
This obviously would need a few tenants to set up. But an ADSL connection which is cheaper than current dial up may be attractive to them.
But it would depend on providers and techincal feasibility (eg, range of wireless router)- I have no experience of this at all,
