Becket, MA | In one of the 30 As a resident of one of those 30 WMa towns, I've explored all the options. The short summary is this: FIOS, DSL and cable are not now and never will be available here. The providers have flatly stated that.
A wireless company is exploring the area, but I don't expect that for a couple of years minimum, and then only with a tower tall enough to "see" over the trees. Ergo, the Hughes dish in the front yard will be my only option for the remainder of my days.
I fully understand the rationale of the providers. The population density here is not nearly high enough to justify the expense of providing wired broadband service. It's a simple economic fact of life. |
