POLL: Your type of internet connection

[zene55]

I use " network is a "fixed wireless" network using the Canopy microwave platform, developed by Motorola, specifically for Wireless Internet Service Providers. In simple terms, we use a series of towers linked by radio signals to provide service to customers"

I have a small antenna on my barn pointing at a tower about 8 miles away. I get about 800 Kbps and go upto 2 Mbps for more money.:thumbsup:

Ya-know, when I switched from DU about 7 years ago to broadband I just got the lowest ( 1.5 ) actually back then there were only 2 choices of DSL speed the lowest and highest speed, now last month I called my provider (WStream) and asked could I pump it up to the next speed because I had talked to a WStream service tech and he advised there were many more Mp of speed available now, and he thought that the next one up shouldn't cost over 5.00 more, anyway! after going from 1.50 to 3.05 ( Double speed ) the actual increase in cost was a mere 4 cents, Now why wouldn't Wstream have advised me earlier about me having the ability to get higher speeds for only Penny's more....:thumbsup:

I get a call about twice a year from the phone company offering to upgrade my service. When I ask them about availability they type on their trusty keyboard and come back a few seconds later telling me that I currently have the highest speed available at my location. I wish they'd prescreen those calls for that kind of thing.
