Does anyone know of a good internet provider that offers only high speed internet and does not require you to have phone service to?? My friend wants internet out in the morgan fork area, but doesn't want to have to get phone because they have cell phones!!

And it's limited to a montley usage limit. Once you reach that limit, it slows down to basically slower than dialup.

SOCS Wireless:
Download Speed: 873 kbps (109.1 KB/sec transfer rate)
Upload Speed: 322 kbps (40.3 KB/sec transfer rate)
Speed varies, but stays fairly close to these results.

I have had hughesnet for 2 yrs now and their service is out a lot. They are blaming it on my area and my modem that is their's. When I am on the phone with customer service, it usually requires at least an hour of my time and several transfers before they finally decide the problem is on their end.

Not 100% happy with them and their prices are high. Once you use up your bandwidth, they do have a service where once a month you can reset the bandwidth without additional costs.

I have found their speed is not the best.

Daily Horoscope for May 22

Scorpio

Don't believe everything you see today and your memory could be playing tricks on you, too. You might remember things in a distorted or false way, through no fault of your own. You may also be reading too much into the situations that are going on around you, making it hard for you to know what's really happening. Try not to make any big decisions today because you simply aren't thinking straight.
