I live in Buttonwood & have DirectTV (since July) the only time I have had signal disruption was during hard rain last week and it was only about a minute at the most. I am always recording on the DVR and when I played back whatever was recording it had like a freeze moment, but it continued to tape the remainder of the show.
My internet is with Comcast. When I moved here I kept getting the runaround about the bundling with DirectTV and something about all the wires not being run out here at the time, so I just went with comcast. |

good to know about the DVR with Direct. I'll keep that in mind.
Was it about $45 just for comcast internet? |

Russ,
When the Century Link technician installed our local landline telephone service he told me that the Village of St. Charles was the last village that was wired with copper. All of the newer villages are wired with fiber optics. I guess all of the service providers have the capability to use the fiber optics. I wouldn't have a clue as to how they do it. I just wish we had it so that we could take advantage of new technologies that will be developed in the future. I'll swap you some copper wire for some fiber optics. |

I got their fastest internet (don't ask me what it is) and phone and it is around $80 (for about $10 more I think I could have had their lowest price bundle, but I already had DirectTV.
If anyone connects to DirectTV I can give you a card to save $100 on your first year (saves me a $100 too). This is the first time I have had satellite over cable, it is much less expensive for many more channels. And for $3 a month get full house DVR where you can tape in one room and watch in any tv in your home. |
