June 05, 2026 Well, they have a monopoly in my area currently. Because of this they are able to do pretty much whatever they wish pricing wise. The only meaningful competition in this rural area in ATT DSL and they don't cover enough area, or have workable speeds for many people.

March 07, 2024 I love my local provider. My only challenge is that when there are high winds or other weather issues the internet can get flaky. This may or may not be beyond my ISP's control. It's hard to tell how much this is on my side versus theirs. Given that I a in an extremely rural area (town with a population of 600 people), my internet is significantly better than I'd expected.
