Can go to lowes and have a custom cable made to length or you can buy one that is up to 100' long already made if it is a regular network cable.

Location: Northwest TN
Advertised Speed(my plan): 2MB down / 512KB up.
Price: 59.95/month can go to 3MB down / 512KB up for 10 dollars more a month, but don't see a need to.
Includes: 3 email accounts, home page hosting(not that good), static IP.
Distance from tower: 1/4 mile, line of site, signal was 100/100 on 2.4 GHZ(Canopy), so yeah im close..

Pings are pretty good, not as good as some, they range around 30-100ms for games. Its a reliable connection, during peak times I usally don't get under 1.4MB down, which is very nice coming from HughesNet.

Overall: Fast Enough Speeds(for me), No FAP(dl limit), pings are good, great support.

EDIT: I noticed alot of people where using SpeedTest.Net, and here my result:


Good Enough for me 3.

Re: What is your speed, service price, and location and ISP?

hmm, right at 38MB when his ISP(T6 Broadband) only offers a BUSINESS package of 12MB..... He must work for the ISP and is running on a T1+ line.

Hi all,

I just got a WISP install today, after nearly 7 years of my only choice being direcpc/direcway/hughesnet.



Central Valley Broadband.

I'm on 900MHz, 1 miles as the crow flies to the POP, but 3 hops to the fibre office.

A very happy,
Chris in rural Auburn

Looks like the speed tests I did earlier were flukes...

Repeated speed tests are looking more like this one:



ISP: Sprint
Operating Locale? Umm, I guess that means Hattiesburg, MS.
Cost: $60 USD / month

It's Rev. 0 though. Salesman said they had Rev. A, but I had a feeling he didn't have a clue about what he was talking about.
