Internet Service

Post by Redfin »

We are about to be moving out near Chaires Crossing and Comcast doesnt service the road we one (they will for $1,000 to run 650 feet of cable :-? )
What are you all outta comcast's range using for high speed internet service? House is wired for Direct TV, so I guess its that.

No phone companies offer high speed internet over there? You're probably gonna miss Comcast.

You could probably get Embarq or whatever they are called now DSL through the phone line. I think DirectTV does DirectWave but if I remember, the equipment was expensive.

DO NOT use satellite internet. Wayyyy NOT reliable! I have had several customers had it, and all got rid of it. Plus, it is overly expensive.
