 $53 per month about 2 days "Probably the most stable WISP connection I've had" "Low speed packages and really high prices compared to others" "If they bumped up their speed packages and maintained pricing, it'd be a no brainer"

Called these guys once before and had a hard time getting a hold of anyone. Finally did and talked to the owner and told me I'd probably be getting a call from their installer (who is a full time fireman) so I waited but never got the call. This time around I filled out the form on their website and waited 2 days and the installer called me and arranged around my schedule to come out and do the site survey. Guy came out and had an assortment of towers to choose from and picked one and got a stable connection and got me installed. Then talked to tech support and managed to get my account set up and I was off and running.
Went with their residential package (1.5 down, 256k up) for 50 a month which is almost short of highway robbery (they have a 2.5 down, 512k up package for 100.00!). It makes it kind of difficult when everyone in the house is on it and online gaming is pretty much out of the question. Doing work over VPN is rough at times but doable.
The installer and the tech both told me that they were looking at bumping up the speed packages soon so I hope that isin't just a pipe dream because if they did then I'd bump up their review.
Overall, pretty satisfied with the stability of their connection coming from Skybeam, but really anything is better than those guys.

I worked with the WiFi45 guys and built a 130' tower to receive wireless signal from Corsicana, TX to my home. I provided the tower, the land and the power for the radios, they provided most of the labor, expertise and the wireless radios. I had hoped for a steady 1 to 1.5 Meg internet connection. So far I have averaged ping times of 15 to 18ms, download speed of 3 to 4.5 Meg and uploads are almost always faster than down! My latest test was to have a single computer linked up to 2 of our plants in Iowa and Texas via metaframe connection, at the same time I was transferring a file (7.5 MB) to a friend using MSN Messenger while I was downloading another file (9.5 MB) from that friend. I also started a ftp from our office and was downloading another 5 MB file. The speed remained excellent through out, and speed test during the downloads/uploads were still in the 4.0 MPS. If you are near Ellis or Navarro county look up wifi45.com, tell them Charles sent you.
