Better Internet Service? (I'd Really Like That.)
Uhh.......................................No.
Responded to a Pews Net Internet Service Promo.
"Free Installation and $25 off/mo. for 6 mo."
Woulda been $69/mo. for 6 mo. Then back to $89/mo. for me. (As minimal "Service," as you can get.)
I just laughed after I heard the Sales pitch and Hung Up. "We usually charge $200, for Installation." Bwahahaha..............................................Good luck with that snit.
Probably get inumerable, contacts going forward.
What a Deal. π€πππππ€£

Well, it costs a lot for the installer to carry his stuff up that goat trail.

Not sure why you aren't just going with Starlink. Don't like Elon?

I have pretty much found that no honest company has a sucker price to get you on,then the price doubles in a year.

Why don't you see if a better phone with better service would work at your place? My mom and dad have Mint Mobile.... It's working out really good and as soon as my phone plan expires here in a couple of weeks I'm joining there family plan at 15 bucks per person...

I quit on cable providers about 4 years ago. Got a 4-phone family plan with Boost Mobile. No contracts, and unlimited everything. Just use the hotspot feature to run internet on the TV, computer, tablets, robot vacuum, etc. Works fine for our family of 4. $120/month all in.

There is only one Cell phone tower, anywhere around here. (All the various Carrier's utilize it.) One "Service ," is no better than another. Several Mountains, between me and that tower, in our Holler.
Pews Net is satellite "Service," which also sucks, where I live.
$69-$89/mo. ? That's a Hard Pass.
(But, but) It's "Free," Installation. "Usually $200." π€ππ€£π Bwah hah hah hah.....................................
I just laughed at her, when I hung l the phone. π€πππ€£

We have been keeping a eye open for star link last I checked its due in our area some times this year thank goodnes
start up is a bit pricy ? but Long run well worth it from all I have heard
I hope so and cant wait
we have always had one option they have changed names but still the same terrible slow and unreliable service
Streaming movies is almost non existent And frustrating
I think it's just a tad faster than the old dial up system years ago Honest
Buts it's all we got for now Can't wait to say by by to them

We have hughes.net satellite. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THEM.

The lesser-known satellite providers are Viasat and Eutelsat. Starlink is the highest priced but offers the lowest latency (lag) in signal. If you are a gamer, the geosynchoronous satellites have way too much lag to be useful. It can take up to a full second for signals to go up and down again.

There are a few starlink maps you can check out.
My brother & his wife both work from home and starlink gives enough juice for them to both be online all day.
