What are you guys using for internet and cell phones in de luz?

[Scott Losee]

Hello. Looking to find out what everyone us using for internet and cell?  I live off Avenida Del Oro but apparently verizon does not offer dsl because they say their are no ports.  Anyone know a way around this?  Having luck with satelite?  Which companies?  Speeds?  I was thinking about trying blue dish then adding a verizon extender to get cell service.  Anyone doing this?

I had a dish for years because there was nothing else available. Even at the highst priced package speeds were barely above dial-up. In rainy weather or heavy fog, it did not work at all.

For the last 6 months I have used Dustin Decker's service. See: http://1on1communications.com/7/

Works fantastic. Got rid of my land line and bought an Ooma device at Costco.

I connect to my office through gotomypc.com, and actually get a lot of work done from the house.

Cell phone is a different matter. I have Sprint and cannot make phone calls. Texting works, if I'm at the right spot on the property. I believe Sprint has a device that works via your internet. They will sell it to you, but I have heard, that if you push them hard enough, they will give it to you.

I have been trying to get in contact with 1 on 1 and have had no response for 2 months. Any ideas? I have called Dustin's personal cell, filled out a service request with no response, and called the number on the site to no avail. I want to get the service, but it appears nobody is there.
