This part of the business will be focused on personalised WISP services and support. \u00a0These will be custom tailored to a limited number of clients. \u00a0Projects such as the &#8220;Start a WISP&#8221; book and upcoming WISP publications will be run under j2sw.com. Other projects that benefit the ISP community will run from j2sw.com. Having j2sw Consulting as a separate arm allows for better personal attention to key customers.<\/p>\n<p>The second division of the business is MTIN.NET. \u00a0This arm will be focused on business to business services such as data center co-location, network connectivity, tower services, and related type services. MTIN is becoming a project management company. We will leverage our vast partnerships to leverage the strength of many to accomplish your medium to large projects. \u00a0 MTIN will be an umbrella company to bring in the right people for the right projects.<\/p>\n<p>Look for changes to the websites and contact information coming over the next month or so. Justin will be involved with each\u00a0entity on a very regular basis, but having extra folks can allow for time to be dedicated to ever-expanding projects without sacrificing service to the client.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Some FAQs<\/strong><br \/>\n<em>Why the change?<\/em><br \/>\nFor a couple of reasons. The first is to leverage Justin being known in the xISP community. \u00a0having a face to the consulting side. This allows for better personal service as well as a trusted name in the WISP community. Secondly, is to allow a better division of resources based on projects and individual needs.<\/p>\n<p><em>Is MTIN going away?<\/em><br \/>\nNo, MTIN will move into a project management type of company. \u00a0We have access to a large network of contractors, partners, service providers, and other groups we have built since 1998. MTIN\u00a0can bring in needed resources for projects under one contact point. This allows for projects to not depend on just one person.<\/p>\n<p><em>Will contact info change?<\/em><br \/>\nIn the upcoming months, we will be publishing updated\u00a0contact info. The old information will not go away, but things will get routed to the proper folks better.<\/p>\n<p>For now check out <a href=\"https:\/\/j2sw.com\">http:\/\/j2sw.com<\/a>\u00a0and like jswconsulting on facebook.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Over the years MTIN has gone from being a computer repair shop to a dial-up ISP, to a Wireless ISP, and many things in-between. \u00a0Each time technology and market conditions change we adapt to change with it. \u00a0Our next metamorphosis is needed so we can grow into more aspects of the xISP world In order [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_is_tweetstorm":false,"jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","enabled":false}}},"categories":[1],"tags":[78,5,14],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p6VLMf-qI","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":2512,"url":"https:\/\/www.mtin.net\/blog\/funding-for-your-isp\/","url_meta":{"origin":1656,"position":0},"title":"Funding for your ISP","author":"j2sw","date":"October 15, 2018","format":false,"excerpt":"One of the more common\u00a0questions at #WISPAPALOOZA2018 was how to do funding your for WISP.\u00a0 One of our partner companies is Ritalia Fundiing \u00a0","rel":"","context":"In &quot;WISP&quot;","block_context":{"text":"WISP","link":"https:\/\/www.mtin.net\/blog\/category\/wisp\/"},"img":{"alt_text":"","src":"","width":0,"height":0},"classes":[]},{"id":6,"url":"https:\/\/www.mtin.net\/blog\/xisp-billing-software\/","url_meta":{"origin":1656,"position":1},"title":"xISP billing software","author":"j2sw","date":"February 21, 2014","format":false,"excerpt":"Azotel\u00a0http:\/\/www.azotel.com\/ Billmax\u00a0http:\/\/www.billmax.com\/ Freeside http:\/\/www.freeside.biz\/freeside\/ Platypus\u00a0http:\/\/www.ispbilling.com\/ PowerCode\u00a0http:\/\/www.powercode.com\/ Wispmon\u00a0http:\/\/www.wispmon.com\/","rel":"","context":"In &quot;xISP&quot;","block_context":{"text":"xISP","link":"https:\/\/www.mtin.net\/blog\/category\/xisp\/"},"img":{"alt_text":"","src":"","width":0,"height":0},"classes":[]},{"id":3219,"url":"https:\/\/www.mtin.net\/blog\/down-detection-for-netflix-hulu-xbox-etc\/","url_meta":{"origin":1656,"position":2},"title":"Down detection for Netflix, Hulu, Xbox, etc","author":"j2sw","date":"March 30, 2019","format":false,"excerpt":"Are you an ISP and need to check if it's you or Netflix?
