After an hour or the phone with AT&T, I learned that I can get Satellite but not a landline and intetnet. There is no cable service. I just want Internet. Any ideas?

Move to civilization?
Enter the Church and wash away your sins. For here there is a hospital and not a court of law. Do not be ashamed to enter the Church; be ashamed when you sin, but not when you repent. – St. John Chrysostom

I don't think so. The website said DSL."He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain that which he cannot lose." - Jim Elliot

For example, EXEDE says...
"When you’re using your Priority Data, you’ll get our best 12 Mbps download speeds. If you don’t go over that allowance (and many of our customers don’t), you’ll remain in that best-speed zone. If, however, you use up all of your monthly Priority Data, your Liberty Pass speeds will still be fast enough to allow you to continue to use the internet, with better speeds during daytime hours."
Ask them to define "fast enough to allow you to continue to use the internet".... my eldest daughter got roped into a contract with this outfit, and after using the 10 Gigs allowed by her plan, it slows to a crawl in the daytime, and is almost unusable at night.
I used to use DirecWay (whoever they are now - HughesNet?) but the add-on charges were KILLER after a certain amount of usage.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

A Co worker lived out in Newberry Springs (our version of the rural boondocks) and hated HughesNet. It was unreliable.Watch your links! http://www.theologyweb.com/campus/fa...corumetiquette

Both my parents and my in-laws use aircards. One uses AT&T, the other uses Verizon. It's basically a device that plugs into the USB on your computer. It lets you get internet like you would through your cellphone. I think there are data plans associated with it. It's decent enough to skype over, though.I'm not here anymore.

And, yes (to Carrikature), you do need a relatively expensive data plan.Originally posted by Cow Poke View PostYeah, cause I have AT&T, and included is instructions on how to set up "tethering" of your laptop to your cell phone. The last step of the instructions explain that "tethering is not included in your data plan".
I want to tether my phone to my laptop, I hit the Mobile Hotspot. My phone contract has a 10GB cap, and it's not that expensive.....Be watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong.
