    Hi suwannee24

    I went with Direcway only because of having no other option

    Well other than selling my home and move 10 miles to get DSL

    Only 6 miles to catch cable interent

    Never happen would I give up my country life

    I bought DirecWay for $600 plus tax program

    I Pay $63 with tax per month and worth it ,, never again would I go back to dial-up

    Hard to miss something that I never had before

    I'm a certified for StarBand installer and my partner ,, no way is this grief worth it

    Things may have changed the past 5 years

    I believe StarBand is still using Telsar 7 on the KU side and .....enough said,,and please don't let anyone to be influenced with my "opinion only"

    It's called rain fade as with DBS as in DishNetwork and Direct TV and DirecWay around 15 Gig freq. but the lost signal due to heavy rain has lasted 12 minutes max with my experience thru 7 years with DBS

    Been retired for 1 year now 55y/0 and have nothing to gain,,business wise

    Only my experience to help when....been there--done that OK OK

    Thanks Danny I have charter 3meg for 42.95 a month the problem with charter

    is sevice they closed our office when I need support it takes 3 to 7 days.

    Ah, so it isn't just us then. Charter seems to be trying to slowly consolidate all of their offices into one big office located precisely in the middle of nowhere, ensuring that no customers will ever receive reasonable service.

    As for satellite, the one insurmountable technical issue is the speed of light. Latency is pretty bad and won't get any better.

    I stay with charter for the internet I would have to go back to dial up.

    but what made mad today was I have cable box remote to go bad so I

    called the 800 number they told me it would be sept.15 before they could

    bring me one.so if I can get anything better than dialup and will tell charter

    by by.

    Still going here. The wife has started up again, she only lasted about a day. I must be lucky that other people smoking is not bothering me. When I tried to quit before it really got to me even just seeing someone on tv smoking but not this time.

    If I can do it so can all of you if you want to.
