The Internet connection at Castle Frostbite as of last night:
Not bad for a rural setting on a dirt road, right?
Ah, BUT.
The Internet connection at Castle Frostbite as of today:
Those are legit 2021-level Internet speeds. The kicker is that the new provider is supplying ten times the previous speed on the download, and forty times on the upload…at $20 less per month.
Gigabit fiber will keep this place swimming along for the next decade or so, I think.
Here in rural Northern California we’re rock’n the ATT DSL 2.2 down and 300k up (good day). Can’t even image double digit speed… let alone chasing a gig. Well done and congrats!
Love all your series. Is there a new Frontlines book coming up?
The next one up will be Frontlines #8, with a likely release date of early next year.
Is there going to be another book in the Frontlines series or is the Washington and her crew stuck in nowhere land forever?
There will be two more books.
Wow. We just got up to 100MBPS up and down and feel lucky.
Small, local ISPs leasing out bandwidth from companies that run fiber trunk lines in the area are popping up everywhere. Great prices and performance. Somewhat jealous.
I’m so happy for you! I know from experience how astonishing it is to find an ISP that just delivers.
Do you mind sharing who your provider is? I’m a fellow Upper Valley resident dealing with Comcast which is fine, but certainly not Gig fiber!!
It’s a new provider called Hub66. They use the local FastRoads fiber infrastructure.
