I called them and they showed up promptly. The install guys were knowledgeable and efficient, and, having worked for a few fixed wireless companies, I recognized that they did a good job. There is a "one size fits all" option for bandwidth that they call "best effort". On the best day (Wednesday night at 2 am) I got 500k + download speeds, and on the worst day I was down to 56k. Upload speeds have consistently been in the 256k range. Latency fluctuates from 56ms to 800ms on a minute by minute basis. They use Tranzeo radios (which I prefer) and require that you have a UPS / surge protector or purchase one from them. There has been no downtime so far, despite the precarious dips in speed. All in all, it works - but you should take their name literally only in comparison to dialup. NOTE: I have been using VoIP lines on their service and it has been surprisingly decent. I also have several friends and businesses that I supported who have used their service for the last two years. It has improved since then, and I am hopeful that the trend will continue, since my only alternative is satellite. member for 23.1 years, 136 visits, last login: 11.1 years ago updated 15.5 years ago
