You don't have to pay in the off season.

Does anyone have updated information on Internet on RS? I doubt our Internet addicted family could live with 1.5/3mbps.

Sometimes, people have to settle for what they can get, unless they want to supply it and pay for all the particulars themselves.

LOL. Thanks VB for the reminder! I remember my first 75kb acoustic-coupled dialup teletype connection (in 1973).

Yep, it's a never-ending cycle. The faster the bandwidth generally available, the more bandwidth is needed as content developers and web page developers cram more stuff to send. Just wait until everyone is trying to stream 4K UHD video streams (and no that's not 4kb)

Maybe some day those old copper cables going out to the main islands will be replaced with fiber.....well, we can hope.
