Nice to hear that some people are coming out with that. Only gripe was that after searching their site for 10mins, I finally found out that is in Illinois. Of course I could have looked at your location on your post, but I was ignorant and didn't look there. They goto great lengths to show the counties they support, but I had no idea what state those counties were even in. But I would love to have some wireless options here. (Northeastern, PA) Unfortunatly with all the mountians here, it would take about 562346347 transmitters just to cover one mile here. | |

| Airlogic This has to be too good to be true! I live in Long Grove (practically in Mundelein) and have been dying for some alternative to ISDN. I called AirLogic today and they are going to come out and check out my site. I just pray I'm in an area where I can receive it! | |

| How are the speeds? How fast is it? It is my understanding that this company uses burstable speed. How long does your speed last before it dies down? How's your latency? What does it die down to? I'm seriously considering using this ISP... I seem to fall into their coverage area. -- They have the internet on computers now? | |

| Re: How are the speeds?
I just downloaded all three Redhat 7.3 ISO's from ftp.sunet.se (Where's that? Sweden maybe?). Average speed over about three hours of solid file transfer was about 1550'ish. It did fluctuate around a little bit (sometimes I saw ~900, sometimes ~2000, within a few seconds.)
Latency is good. The very first packet takes longer to get from here to there, but the rest of them are good. My pings to dslreports are: 100, 50, 40, 50 for an average of 60. | |

| My pings to dslreports.com just now were 42, 40, 43, 45 for an average of 42ms. I recently downloaded some Linux distro ISOs too, and I was seeing around 1 - 1.5M download speeds. While it is pretty hard to judge whether dips in the speeds are due to the ISP or the server at the other end, I have seen consistency reliable speeds so far. | |
