Will possibly be starting service with this provider. And all I know about
them is what I read on their website. Anyone out there have any experinece
with them as an actual customer?
I am a little concerned they have an antenna on top of the local towns
water tower and I'm approx. 2.5 miles away as the crow flies out in the
sticks . I have general line of sight on the tower, I can see the airplane
signal light at night, but can't see the tower itself.
I'm a little concerned about reception issues, especially once all the
trees leaf out. Tree's and foliage are notorious eaters of RF energy.
So if anyone out there has used DTN Speednet, as a WIFI ISP let me know!

Zach -
You can get CPE equipment that should be able to pull that signal thru.
there is great stuff available - I have a client about a mile away and he
is recieving signal thru a bunch of trees .... No line of sight ..in the
rain >>> 100% strength
. I have pictures but make them prove it.....
Merry Christmas

Hi Zach,
You should or the WISP should do a link budget calculation. It's rough but
you can get an approximate idea if you'll get a good link or not.
