High Speed Wireless Internet Access
Wireless internet access uses 2.4Ghz or 5.8Ghz radio
signals to provide your connection to the internet rather than a phone
line. This bypasses all the problems associated with using a voice
grade phone line and modem. Our connections do not use your phone line
so you can drop that extra
line and save $30+/month to the phone company. Speed/monthly
pricing is:
2M $34.95/month
-
3M $39.95/month
-
4M $44.95/month *
6M $54.95/month *
* The 4M and 6M speeds are only available in some
locations and require a better signal to one of our towers.
The range on 2.4ghz signals is limited to line of sight. This means
the antennas at each end of the link have to be able to see each other with virtually
nothing in the way. Unfortunately even trees block the signal. This means that
the service will not be available everywhere.
Where is wireless available?
The areas Redbird is currently able to reach is the "in
town" Mt. Gilead, Edison, Williamsport and north of Williamsport, and a
4 block radius around downtown Cardington. West of Edison all the
way to the county line is possible as long as there is a clear line of
sight to your east.
If you live more than a few blocks of those area's then service may be
available if clear line of site can be established (ie no trees or buildings in the way).
Obstructions such as trees, hills, and buildings will block the signal
and or limit distances severely. We are adding area's all the
time so call to see if we can cover your location.
What about installation fees?
Install cost is typically no more than $75
