satellite internet
Posted by madameblogalot at 3:02 pm in life, reviews, something new

Our experience with high speed internet has been unbelievable. When we first decided to spend the extra money on it, justified by the amount of time we use the internet and for educational purposes, we went with RoadRunner, who was the only carrier in the area. Then, we got switched to Comcast. The name of that company has now become a curse word in our home! If you read any of my other blogs you would know that for six months we had intermittent service from last fall until this spring. So when our internet started doing the same thing two weeks ago, we were not happy customers!

We still are not sure what caused this most recent round of internet grief. It took TEN DAYS for Comcast to get the situation fixed. That is after my neighbors and I having to go through the same methods day after day after day. As it stands right now, it seems to be staying online, which is good. But I am not completely convinced. So when I heard about the option of satellite internet I must say I was intrigued. I know nothing is perfect, but it is an option I just may have to mention to husband.

  1. I considered satellite service before we switched to DSL, although Hughes wasn’t being advertised around here then. I looked at “Wild Blue”. I liked the download speeds, but the upload speeds were quite slow compared to DSL. When our current contract is up though I will look at satellite again for sure.

  2. yes, I have not looked at it seriously, but cannot be worse!
