do you guys qualify for the surewest broadband program?

i need to know what areas people live in that they can get this service. Need to know so i can buy or rent a house there.

nothing like 10mbs up and down for 50 bux a month.. soooooo let me know im serious

 

I know SonicSuby has it

go to www.winfirst.com and they have a map of the area

 

AHHHH YEAAAAHHHH!!!!

 

showoff

 

 

Supposedly our new Comcast cable here in Roseville will be pretty quick, but I keep asking them if its anything like that winfirst setup and im not getting a straight answer about it

 

hey sonic, how much a month and how stable is it and are any houses for sale in your hood?

 

it wont even compare to winfirst

expect 1.5-2mbit downloads, and 256kbit upload speed.

cable companies will not quote you speeds, but thats roughly what others get with the same service.

 

Darn it, I want to move to Natomas

 

I actually have a pretty sweet setup with surewest.

I get my local/ld phone, tv and inet through them. The more service you pile on, the bigger monthly discount you get. I average about 17% - 23% discount per month.

My internet goes for $49.95/mo. It's pretty stable - I've had a few weekends where on a Sunday for some reason the connection speed was so unbearably slow (I'm talking less than 56k..one time I was having connect issues, did a dslreport and got a NEGATIVE number for my speeds ).

I don't like some things about them - their "technical" people aren't too bright. I was having some internet connections when they first set me up and they tried blaming my router, then my net card, then my mobo and I told them the whole time it was their equipment. They wasted hours of my time to find out I was right. You can't create/edit your mailbox settings on line, you have to call them and create an e-mail address over the phone, which sucks. If you're an internet company, you should be able to do **** OVER THE INTERNET! grrr

Other than that, they're kick ***. My TV service and phone service rock, the internet is blazing. Even on crap servers I get at least 300k down. My best dl ever was an AVERAGE speed of 4meg/sec!!!!!!

There are a couple houses for sale in my neighborhood, but even the smallest ones are selling for $260k+..

 

buy me a house out there

 

We're lucky we bought when we did because I couldn't even buy ME a house out there now

And it will only get worse. They're putting homes across the street right now. One development starts at $275k, another at about $300k and the third at $380k, all within a mile.

I want the $380k house - two car garage and then a separate one car garage with windows, all attached. floor plan is BAD ***. If we had a bit more equity we'd probably rent our house out and buy the other one..but we'll have to wait

 

or you can live in a van.. down by the river

lol

 

I-club group buy!!!!!

 

hey sonic check your pm's
