Re: Fast Downloads in Anchorage

Geez. And I'm still stuck here with stingy MTA - both at home and
work. The highest speed they go is 768 (which I still have yet to get
over 70 KB/s on), and they still have the 10 GB download limit. You can
get 4-8MB speeds if you get DTV - but if you are a business, you can't
get that. So bottom line is, they have _no_ decent internet packages
for businesses.

For the same price as what we're paying MTA for 768, we could be getting
10Mbps and no limit with GCI. If they would just run their lines across
the street, but we've been asking them about that for over 5 years now
with no progress.
