The install went well for me, but the signal was a little weak so they replaced my antenna with a dish. I've had great performance through them.
I connect to 3 different VPNs, use VoIP, and upload a lot of stuff, and the 2.5Mb/1Mb service is great for that.
First hop ping times average about 32mS which is maybe marginally slower than cable.
Update 3/27/08 - This appears to have been resolved. I'm now averaging 7.7ms for my first hop which is better than comcast or dsl.
I haven't seen the packetloss issues that others have and Lingo (voip) runs great.
My only complaint is that when i connect to Comcast customers in boulder (15 miles away) my connection routes through dallas!
Update 3/27/08 - This appears to be more comcasts fault than mesa's. I average a round trip ping time to EarthNet in boulder of only 21.6mS, with very little jitter (4mS stddev).
The wireless connection is rock solid. The only problem i had was when the wind ripped the dish off my roof. They were out the next morning to reattach it.
I'm also upgrading my value for money. While- hey are more expensive per mbit than comcast or qwest - you get the added value of not having to deal with comcast or qwest.
