Internet providers in rural areas

[whitetrash]

Are any of the satilite or wireless providers really any good?

We are looking at a few homes outside of city but my old lady works from home and needs a good internet provider.

Yeah, some of them are decent. It would help to know what city. Wi Five is great if they cover your area.

We aren't sure exactly yet. Looking at Newark, Justin, ponder, and Krum so far

we had sky beam and it was great the only problem was the rod they put up was against HOA regulations and it had to be taken down

I use www.solbroadband.com . They're decent if your just doing normal browsing.

I have sky beam and recently got my speeds upped to like 15/5 for 65.00 a month. The first one blew off the roof in a storm last year but this new one is much smaller and aimed at a better satellite for feed. Pole is about 30 foot or so. I do miss my hardline though as bad storms and extreme cold can knock sky beam out for a week. Been pretty good this year though.

Do they data cap?

I don't think so but you would probably have to ask them.

11/4 is what speed test just showed.
