Hi. I know this is not genealogy, BUT, it does pertain to the subject of internet access. Thanks to Jerri for sharing this concept. My concern, as someone invested in the earth and its inhabitants, if this sends out damaging and blinding microwaves, what about birds flying above it looking down? And do the TV dishes already do this? Will it be like a mine field out there for wildlife? Just wanting to know before investigating technology which sounds great. susan ============================================================================= Susan Werstein Phone: (03) 467-5632 Country code: 64 8 Lothian St. Dunedin, New Zealand E-Mail: [email protected] ============================================================================= od
Brothers and Sisters, Wind Chaser here, I have been running 580 kbts instead of the 56 kbts ever since last Christmas. I have been using Cable via cable television and a cable modem. The Cable modem is purchased for about $250.00 and the cost of the cable is $49.00 per month. You don't have to have anything put up and there is no harm to the environment. This way you don't have to have the second phone line, and the monthly expense for that. You still have a cost but not the cost of the monthly phone line.
