I pay $50 per month for the basic plan (768kbs down 128kbs up) and it is definitely not worth it. First got service in January of '07. White antenna mounted on side of house. Around June, started having signal problems, intermittent connection. Called tech support, said antenna was bad, replaced it. Worked for a month. Started having same problems. Called tech support again, said it was the modem that was bad. Repairman comes, says antenna is bad, replaces with a new version, doesn't touch modem. Works for 2 months, again, same problem. They still said the modem was the problem. Serviceman came, put a 8' pole up about 10' from the house, from then to now, have had 4-5 bars signal. I play lots of online games and even though the ping is usually less than 150ms, I get terrible lag playing Halo 3 and such. Going to call Windstream tomorrow and see if they are available here. I can get a 12mbit connection for just $40.
