Internet Service in San Antonio
I'm moving to San Antonio. I need to use Internet for VOIP/Skype. What's the best service provider for that area? I understand Telmex DSL is real slow.
Also, does anyone have experience using cellular internet with a WIFI hotspot or dongle here in Lakeside as an alternative to DSL or cable?
Thanks,
John

Infinitum service is analogues to 1995 dial-up. The best I can get here is 1.6 mbps uplink and something like .06 or .07 down with frequent (every hour or so) drops. MajicJack is choppy. Forget about streaming. Downloading a movie is an overnight affair.
The Board of Directors here recently surveyed 250 residents for issues the membership wanted the Board to act on. Internet service was issue #2. Telmex ignores or cajoles individual customers and ignores communication from the Board representing the whole community.
Service on or south of the Carretera seems to be just fine - >5 mbps.

Re: Internet Service in San Antonio
I believe you mean 1.6 down by .06 or 07 Mb/s up. Oh and that is much better than dial up. Dial/up here averaged less than 0.040 Mb/s down by about the same up
Actually Lagunanet, the first ISP lakeside offered only up/to 28.8 kb/s down by about the same up Oh, that's 0.028.8 Mb/s when they offered the first internet service here in the late spring of 1997
