Re: Satellite Internet
For the longest time satellite internet has really been an absolute last ditch service if you absolutely need better than dialup speeds, however over the last year SpaceX has launched Starlink and it's an absolute game changer. While the startup fees may be slightly higher it is truly lightyears ah...

Satellite Internet
Hi, does anyone have any knowledge or experience in satellite internet installation on the island? I know Viasat and Hughesnet advertise rural service with free installation, but has anyone actually used them? I am a mile and a half from the nearest phone line drop, so TDS is not an option for me. T...

Re: Wireless/Cell Phone AT&T or Verizon
Verizon definitely has better coverage in the south end of the island, though still limited. No signal at all most of the time with my AT&T phone, my wife has Verizon, and can often get a weak signal.

Re: Cell tower location
Just an update. I have a vacation home on North French Bay Road if I didn't mention the location in my earlier post. I am about a mile and a half from Iron Ore Bay. I brought up a cellular signal booster in August, which unreliably gave me one signal bar on Verizon, zero bars on AT&T. I put the ...

Re: Cell tower location
Thank you all for the information and ideas. I will post my results when I get to try out the new booster. I have AT&T service on my phone and my wife has Verizon. I can sometimes get an AT&T signal at Iron Ore Bay or at the south head lighthouse. I assume it travels across the lake from the...

Re: Cell tower location
Thanks for the information. We have a seasonal home on French Bay Road. We get no AT&T signal at all, but sometimes get a single bar with Verizon. I bought a cell signal antenna/booster and want to try it out. I'm trying to determine which direction to aim it.

Part-year residents missing the island
I am a part-year resident of the island, I guess more of a vacationer who owns a place on the island, at least until now. My family has owned land on the island since 1998. I retire April 8 and had anticipated spending many weeks on BI starting in early May. Alas, the COVID-19 pandemic. I understand...
