want them now, don't you?

@jezra @zyabin101 If things get screwed with Spectrum I'll have to go HughesNet. Building a myth box for ATSC captures via antenna now...

Code, Tinker, Break, Fix. Not always in that order.

It is imperative that you exhaust all other options before you switch to HughesNet. ALL OTHER OPTIONS!!!!!!

@jezra All I've got options-wise are Spectrum cable, falling down to Windstream DSL, dial-up to SDF.org, and HughesNet. #AmishCountry

Ouch... are there any 'fixed-wireless' ISPs available?

@jezra These guys claim they do but do not talk prices for ZIP code 44004: http://www.metrowireless.com/coverage/

Code, Tinker, Break, Fix. Not always in that order.

they look like more of an LTE data reseller than a fixed wireless ISP

@jezra Then I don't seem to have a WISP in the area. Nearest IXP is >100 miles south-southeast if I wanted to make one.

hella bummer. Hopefully HughesNet isn't your only viable option.

@jezra If I fall down to UUCP over dial-up for a while, I will surely be creative plus leveraging apt-offline more.
