[QUOTE="p238shooter, post: 3968813, member: 24583"] I have lived out in the country for years, tried the $100/mo satalite internet a couple times, Wild Blue and Hughes net, limited data, off during storms. Rest of the time used the wireless internet with Sprint and Verizon who have towers 3-5 miles away for years at about $60 / month and 30G limits before throttling back to about dialup speeds. I also had Direct TV for television for over 25 years with constant price increases for all. A little over a year ago my REC Lake Region Electric installed Fiber To The House. I took their truly unlimited 1G package at about $120/mo. Cancelled my $60/mo wireless cell phone internet, my $120/mo Direct TV, and my $60 home phone system. I bought 3 Ruko TV sticks at about $30 each (one time purchase), and now pay $55/mo for an extra Vidgo connection to get live Newsmax, OAN, and many sports channels. I now have way more channels than I can possibly watch with nothing missing from the past and way more internet than I can ever use for any future purpose. My service has been rock solid. When I first had it hooked up I was only measuring about 500-600megb up and down on my computer with 3 TVs streaming. Shortly later found out my old computer did not have enough processing power to measure the full 1G speed I truly had. haha After years of dreading anything with extensive data transfer on my computer, I now do not have to think about it. Good luck to all those still waiting. [/QUOTE]
