 "Possibly the least expensive 1.5 service in the area."
 "1.5 is the only service available,"
 "Good value, problems are rare."

I thought I had reviewed this company some time ago, but I'm unable to locate reviews that old.
I happened across this company quite by accident one day after noticing a flyer at a mall kiosk. Other than that, they do no advertising, so many people don't even realize it exists. It was an individual company when I joined but has now taken over other small companies.
I have been with this company over 3 1/2 years now and for people who think there are no other choices in Las Vegas other than Cox Cable or Embarq DSL, check again. Other than Las Vegas where they started, their service is limited to a few rural areas a few states.
Granted, they don't provide service to every single part of Las Vegas (check out their service area map on their website), but I'm basically pleased with my service. It's on all of the time and relatively stable, at least for my needs.
For those unfamiliar with the service, a 12" square antenna mounted on my rooftop air conditioning unit receives a wireless signal, which travels by way of a coax to the ethernet port on the back of the computer. I reside in a very old, established neighborhood with trees 50 ft high or more throughout and by no means have an unobstructed line-of-sight view of the transmitting antenna that's a a mile or two away from my home, but a signal is still very much available.
For the first time since I've had the service, there is an outage that started yesterday and continues today. They're blaming the phone companies for fiber optic problems, but at least 3 states are involved.
