We have some friends who moved from San Diego to way up in the mountains here in Colorado. Beautiful property! But I digress.. somehow, I didn’t ask lol, her landline is connected to a cell phone. I think.

So do you have to go somewhere to get internet? Or satellite?

It’s a bit sketchy, cell phone wise where we live. And all the electric lines are underground, so we don’t get why we have to have satellite internet.

But if I’m in the living room, my phone cuts out, if I go sit on the stairs (2’ from the living room) it’s fine. Upstairs in the loft, no service, down the hall in my bedroom, fine. 🤷🏻‍♀️

No, we have fiber optic for internet but no cell service. Closest cell tower is, I think, ten miles away with hills in between. We are very rural on large acreage so the cell tower people aren't that motivated. I'm fine with no cell phone but don't mess with my internet :-)
