Satellite vs. DSL Broadband

As we make it through another cool week here in SW Colorado mountains, watching the Emerald Hummingbirds taking over the Rufus hummingbird feeders, the young bucks have also been captured grazing on the slope in our backyard. Also... we have been moving along at faster broadband speeds since mid-week (September 11, 2008).

Yes! Finally! We have made the move from Hughesnet's slow Satellite broadband to Qwest's faster DSL broadband with a savings of over $70 per month.

Yep! That is correct! A savings and faster! Hughesnet was charging us around $89 per month for speeds lower than what we are getting on our NEW DSL connection. Our Qwest monthly broadband bill is $14.95. AND... our browser loads considerably faster than the satellite broadband ever did.

Hughesnet needs to lower their broadband prices, considerably. AND... for those not able to get dsl or cable, satellite is the only answer in the rural areas and it is getting crowded on their satellites.
