Probably time to upgrade a bit.
My choices are fairly limited as I live behind a hill, out of site of those towers, and Telus tells me they can't put me on an upgraded phone line.
So, it comes down to satellite access, including the costs associated with getting a dish and what not put on the house OR, brainwave, cellular access.
So, my question to the brilliant minds of Calgarypuck is: "Can I use my cellphone number to get better internet access on my home computer in the country."
I rarely use my cell phone anyway.
Comments?
I've heard satellite is okay until the network gets full and then the company has to lower everyone's speed.
