    UGH I need new internet, .08 mbps REALLY?!

    Ok, I am finally sick of my internet and it has been long enough now that better internet is cheaper. I live in rural Iowa, a town of 2,000 and we can't get crap here! Pretty much all we have here is Mediacom. I have Dish for TV and even they can't help me with internet because none of these places are available in my town: Verizon, at&t, Clear, EarthLink, Century Link, Windstream, Frontier, HughesNet and TDS. Sooo pretty much we have nothing here. I'm using a satellite internet from SpeedConnect, they used to be ComSpeed, they say I can get 'up to' 10 mbps, but the highest I have seen today is .72... absolute garbage! It's really starting to piss me off that I'm paying $40 a month for that, I should just make my dang phone a hot spot and use its' internet for that price!

    Does anyone use mediacom just for internet? I'm afraid it's going to be outrageous and they always have so many loopholes and gimmicks. It looks like I can get just internet from them for $39.99 after their 12 month discount thing and it's for 10 mbps so a heck of a lot better than what I have for less money.

    Does anyone have any other ideas? I don't know what to do, I'm sick of this internet and I have next to no options.
