Hey all.
Wife and I are looking at moving, and may have just stumbled on our dream home. Mind already a buzz with new HA projects!
the issue is that while it's not that rural, the internet provider option is limited for some reason. they have Frontier DSL (ugh) and that's it... the other option is satellite.
Do any of you use Hughenet or some other provider, and what's your experience? looks like you can get 25MBs download, which isn't awful, but no where near the 150 I pay for with Cable right now. Also caps at 50GB.... per month, then they throttle you back.
we often work from home, using audio and sometimes video conferencing. other than that, we stream quite a bit of movies (Xbox/Netflix, etc).
Also, my son is a pretty big gamer, which sounds like the biggest problem with satellite. that said, he's going off to college in the fall (hence the move)… so not huge deal breaker, but I occasionally play as well.
Live in east Seattle area... so 5G may be an option, but can't find any timelines to bank on.
love any thoughts!
thanks
