Going to have to have a Century Link DSL on the black fiber run to our new home until something better comes out. LIKE FIOS That is what I'm putting in my survey! NO MORE MUDRUNNER slow internet. Lets move the villages into the year 2005 at least!

Our iPad works just fine with the 3G signal. Going to get a 4g someday. No reason to jump yet played with the new one.

I don't do much with movie downloads. I have Directv at home and in the motor home and never found the need. I am, what I would consider, a higher-end Internet user - I even use it with my Smart-TV and occasionally with my Smart-Phone. I have yet to go over the 5 Gig limit with my current plan. I've come close, but never over. I admit that when I'm updating the maps for my GPS I wait to do it when I find a WiFi hot-spot because the download is always over 2 gigs. Verizon only charges ten bucks for each gig over the package limit. The ten gig package is $80. I would no doubt look for something better if we stayed in The Villages all of the time. We travel 4 or 5 solid months each year and a half-dozen one week or 10 day trips while we are in Florida.

I've been using Verizon's Wireless Internet for nearly 9 years and have been very satisfied overall.
