We went into our local cellone in May. The wireless internet was installed in late June. The only reason for the delay was they were doing upgrades in the month of June. I've had the service for a little over two weeks and I'm pleased. The only issue I had was the internet was down from Wednesday evening to Today. I still don't think I'd go back to dial-up. I'm also using VOIP with it and it works flawlessly.
The connection is 500/128 and 39.95 I believe. The antenna is a 2.4GHz Terabeam Terastar EtherAnt3 that is amplified. They provide Linksys routers but I'm using my own Netgear wireless router. They currently switched from Static IP to PPPoE.

So it's been almost 6 months now.. I haven't had an outage since my equipment got struck by lightening in early august. Pings are good and I have not had any problem with packet loss or latency (knock on wood) lol. They are a good WISP and I don't know what I would do without 'em.

It's been over a year now and my service is still going strong. Within the year that I have had their service, I have lost 2 antennas, routers, and power injectors due to lightnign strikes. It did take about 7-8 days to get a new antenna and such, but after it was fixed it worked great. This connection is at my parents home and they are now using it with QuantumVoice. They have talked for 2+ hours at a time on the connection and it runs flawlessly. There is a competitor in the area now, but I'm going to stick with Cell1Net.
