The real bottom line on this whole discussion...if one wants non-urban lifestyle living, then this is also part of the acceptance, you won’t have first or second class internet or TV programming.
I would suggest this on HugesNet...it was probably designed for X-amount of customers and service, and the draw went way beyond what they could realistically provide people. Business-wise, I would anticipate a lot of folks leaving it...with some collapse occurring in the next twelve months of the company.
In Europe and other developed countries they have fibre and high speed internet everywhere.
