Wild Rose is a provider of wireless internet services to rural communities in Alberta. I have been a customer for over a year and have found them easy to deal with and their service, whilst not as fast as cable or DSL, is adequate. Wild Rose is the only ISP to provide service to many rural communities in Alberta. Their helpdesk is significantly better than some local providers!
Download Speed: As high as 3 Mbps, normally 1.5 Mbps, sometimes lower. Upload Speed: Normally 500 kbps but has been as low as 50 kbps for long periods.
Wild Rose provides their own speed test page that does not show upload speeds. I have been using speedtest.net but now find their DNS servers redirect that IP to their own page. I consider this to be poor public relations and offensive in a country that prides itself on openness and free speech.
