You'll find the December 10 minutes here.
Meanwhile, you may have heard the news the Wild Blue is ending service. That leaves Fairpoint DSL and WaveComm. If you have line of sight with the Cardigan summit, and Fairpoint hasn't extended DSL to your road, then WaveComm is your best bet. Even if you can't see the summit from your place, the company may be worth a try. We switched from WildBlue to WaveComm a couple years ago and preferred the service.
Now that Fairpoint DSL has come to Cardigan Mountain Road, though, we're on DSL. Faster and more reliable.
Quick refresher: WaveComm bounces radio signals off small dishes, much like wifi. The company installs a small transceiver with a modem and charges a monthly or yearly fee. DSL stands for "digital service line," in which data comes over upgraded phone lines. Neither is as fast as cable, but Orange isn't likely to see cable service for some years. WildBlue used satellite, which tends to download quickly but uses regular phone lines for uploading.
Meanwhile, enjoy the holidays and may you think only of the broadbands around our waists.
