What is the very best way to get high speed internet? Dakota Ridge her in Golden CO has inet but poor quality. Extender would help with regular inet but I need high speed for Netflix.
Anyone know who has the best inet for travelers. I travel for work year round and have dish thru pathfinder 2.
HELP!!
I've heard of so many diff options. What's the best?

T-Mobiles band 12 can go a long way in the boonies. I have been using a tower over 30 miles from me.

Thank you all. We went with T-mobile - a getlmen here in this park told me about "binge on". We've been using for 3 weeks now and watch Netflix everyday and no problems at all. Unlimited with T mobile and we have used 138 GB so far with no slow down. Very affordable and works great!

GIVE IT A TRY!!!

If the only reason you need hi speed is for Netflix I have a suggestion. When you have WiFi available you can download movies to your phone to your tablet or to a computer for later viewing. Then when you want to watch a movie or show all you would have to do is make sure you are logged on to your Netflix account so that your Netflix app on your device will allow you to watch your program straight from the device instead of streaming directly from Netflix.

Downloading tv shows and movies from Netflix

I haven't tried it yet but will probably try it out later this year.

FIrst choice for high speed would be Fiber
Then Cable TV
Cellular
Excede satellite (However it may be very expensive for high speed)
Home was where I park it. but alas the.

The best coverage and most expensive cellular option (and cellular is your only option for your demands) is Verizon. However, if you will always be camping near big cities or along Interstate highways you should have very good service from all providers. The problem is that even the unlimited plans are limited so if you are trying to replace satellite TV with streaming video you are likely to burn through your high speed data very quickly. In the case of Verizon, you get 22GB per line unless you use it as a hot spot and then you only get 10GB before you are slowed. The AT&T Mobley gives you 22GB of high speed service and then you "may" be slowed done depending upon network congestion. I have a truly unlimited MiFi from Sprint (I have a Mobley, too) for $46/month but you must have a legitimate business to get the plan and Sprint has the worst coverage of all of the big 3.

Assuming by traveling for business you mean you actually move to different locations often then this is not the answer.

NEED ??

There is no one solution that works best everywhere.
How much are you willing to spend ??

IF you already have a working satellite service, I suggest that you ween yourself off of Netflix.

Do you have a strong AT&T signal? If so check out the posting for ATT for $20.00 a month in this forum.
Please give me enough troubles, uncertainty, problems, obstacles and STRESS so that I do not become arrogant, proud, and smug in my own abilities, and enough blessings and good times that I realize that someone else is in charge of my life.

About the only way to get consistent, high-speed, and and reliability is via fiber-optic cable connection. You're gonna need a LONG wire..

If by 'best' you mean coverage, reliability and speed, Verizon.
