I'm sure God blesses anyone who does something nice for their in-laws.
My rancher friends out in the sticks all connect through their satellite dishes and are extremely happy with the service. Why go through all the trouble of routers, networks, etc. when you could spend the same money just helping them with the satellite bill?
My long distance is free. DirecTV is about $60 a month without TV. I gave them the computer and paid for their service until it went out of business,.....twice. I already have the DSL, routers, and 3 computer network at my house. If I have to pay $60 a month so they can check lotto numbers and look up the latest medicare program, then I'll repo the puter.
My mother in-law still thinks anything more advanced than a rotary phone is a plot to confuse her.
