High-Speed Internet

[Ms. A-town]

Hello all. I've enjoyed reading the various forums.

We've recently moved to the SRB/Pt. Washington area and it has become apparent that there is no high speed internet available other than satellite. Satellite isn't an option for us, b/c I need a secure VPN connection for my work, which I've been told you can not get over satellite. I've asked some of the folks who live in our area and they all have satellite. How is possible that you can have high-speed internet access in Mozambique, but not parts of S. Walton County? Does anyone know if any proposals through the county for this to change?

Welcome Ms. A-town.
Concerning your question, I have no idea. Just saying welcome.
I really don't think it could be true, however, what about cable?

MediaCom would be the cable company servicing the area of Pt Washington, and coverage varies from one neighborhood to the next. You would not be the person who recently moved into a house on Georgie St, eh?

Welcome aboard! I had Mediacom installed when at WC last month and I am very pleased with the service. Hopefully, it will be available for you.

Call Jim McDonald to see if you can get a signal from him:

Have you checked with Sprint about adding DSL to your phone service?

 

[ShallowsNole]

If you're on/near Georgie St, neighbor (well, within a mile or two) and I am in internet hell at my home too. Sprint doesn't have DSL in our 'hood yet.

If you figure out a solution, will you (or anyone else with a clue) pm me?

I will have to try Kurt's suggestion too.
