kmmcrafts Posted April 14, 2018 Report Share Posted April 14, 2018 I live in the boonies.. and we just got electricity last week.. or maybe that was a few years ago .. I have 3 options for internet.. first is... No internet... second is dial-up.. and third is DSL.. Other than that..I have to refer to the first option .. I've had the slowest option for DSL for the longest time.. which for the most part worked for my needs... Until everyone gets home and get's online.. LOL.. I just bumped up to a higher speed one and it's much better now.. We have one more faster speed I could upgrade to.. hoping they get us some more options that are affordable someday soon.. I pay more for my DSL than most pay for the High Speed stuff that live in town.. and wow.. what they have is super fast..

new2woodwrk Posted April 14, 2018 Report Share Posted April 14, 2018 I had DSL for many many years - unfortunately, AT&T started giving me problems so I switch to cable - I really didn't want to switch but it's the lessor of 2 evils IMO - I can't stand overpriced cable!

Roberta Moreton Posted April 14, 2018 Report Share Posted April 14, 2018 We just got an upgrade offer on our DSL. I am signing up Monday. We can’t get cable either. Love it here in the boonies! OCtoolguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OCtoolguy Posted April 15, 2018 Report Share Posted April 15, 2018 I live in an area that has what is called Verizon FIOS. That's fiber optic cable. We are tv junkies and have all 3 tiers of cable channels along with Netflix and Amazon Prime and Hulu. We have what is called a bundle that includes all of the cable channels available, the fastest up and down speed of internet and of course, we have landline phone with free long distance. The whole package runs us $185 a month. We are blessed to live where all that is available. And the weather is great. Everything else sucks though. Way too crowded and the politics are the worst. Oh well........................ Ray Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
