| [ARIZONA] Business Broadband Service? Hello everyone,
I was wondering if some one could offer some insight into a reliable ISP other than cox or qwest. For some reason neither of those ISP's Will provide a connection to my business. Cox does not want to pay the 10k it would cost to get a line in my building and im assuming qwest is in a similar situation. I know both of these guys service my area because im surrounded by other business' and residential neighborhoods. Im assuming my only choice is some kind of wireless or wifi but hughsnet just seems unreasonable at 300 per month for 3 - 5mb with a datacap. Currently I have a split T1 that is very slow and cost ineffective. We were possibly thinking about paying an employee to allow us to set a cox business line in his home and use directional antennas to transmit the signal because he lives just couple hundred feet up the road from here. Security is a big concern with that option though. |

I also wish someone would offer internet service in Arizona that people can actually get. Cox and Qwest don't service my location either and there's nothing else available. It would seem that if some company would come out with a reasonably priced internet service that was available everywhere that actually worked they could make $Millions! |

And such a task would take Billions of dollars, It is a bit more complicated then you may think to supply Internet access to EVERYONE, and then factor in what "a reasonably priced internet service" would be, as everyone's definition would be different.

| Not really, some of them are already in place like Sprint Broadband Direct, Virgin Mobile and Cricket broadband, they just don't work. They couldn't get Sprint to work in the 3 years I had it and I gave up on Virgin when the speed got down to 56K with long delays and it wouldn't work anymore.
Also nearly everyone has a phone line, well older homes do but youngsters just get cellphones. Anyway, it seems like someone could come up with a way to send data over the phones lines that's faster than dialup. |

You mean something like a Digital Subscriber Line? They could call it DSL for short. Genius!
