[Eug-lug] OT: Looking for suggestions for broadband (in Eugene)

[Michael Miller]

The problem with satellite service is always going to be rain fade or
other atmospheric conditions.  It's my understanding you can increase
your gain with a larger dish.  Have you looked at EVDO service from
Verizon?  My other suggesting would be some other data plan from a
nation wide wireless carrier.
