HIGH SPEED INTERNET FOR RURAL COMMUNITIES

Having problems with your existing internet service?

Tired of waiting for web pages to load or video buffering?

Can’t get internet service where you live?

Trying to decide whether to invest in Starlink or other services?

Then call the Wireless Wiz and find out if I can help.

I’m a rural resident who has faced similar challenges.

And I have found some clever solutions to these painful problems.

The story of the Wireless Wiz

I had survived with dial-up for seven years but it became very painful.

I tried satellite for six months but it was only marginally better.

Then one evening I glanced to the left in my driveway and saw the lights on a TV tower 8 miles away.

I knew that there was an internet provider on the tower, but I did not realize I could see the tower until then.

In speaking with neighbors I realized that they experienced similar challenges and frustration. So I started helping

them find better internet services. The solutions evolved as LTE and other services became available.

But challenges remain, including coverage, service selection, antennas, cellular modems, Wi-Fi etc.

In 2021 Starlink started deploying internet services to people in rural areas. Starlink provides more bandwidth

and the ability to use the internet more effectively, but challenges continue. Finding a good location for the dishy

that provides unobstructed service can be difficult and may require poles, trimming trees and other measures.

Unlike other services, Starlink requires broad visibility across the sky, which is not readily available in many rural areas.

Higher bandwidth is great, but it is often difficult to get that bandwidth to the places that need it.

Distributing Wi-Fi signals can be challenging, particularly across separated living areas, thick walls, etc.

Zoom and other video conferencing applications are very sensitive to weak signals and service interruption.

Over the years I have assisted many rural residents acquire and manage a wide variety of internet services.

I'd love to talk with you about your experiences with the internet. I learn something new every day!
