[Highland Park] Connectivity in Highland Park - Follow Up
by Maureen Slevin 10 Mar '14

10 Mar '14

Hello, Neighbors. I recently posted a request for suggestions on how to avoid Comcast and Internet price gouging. Many of you have asked to be kept informed of what I learn. Even more of you have generously shared your ideas and experiences. I have not made my personal decision just yet; however, I did receive a very tantalizing reply from Evan Stein of www.greenwifi.com. His company is Green Light Wireless; he is local and does service Highland Park among a number other areas of Pittsburgh. Though I have not yet made a among the functional alternatives, I would encourage you all to visit Evan's site. There is a link to an extremely informative article on "why your cable bill is so high." Yikes - I was not aware the US has the slowest internet speeds in the developed world! And that's just one really eye-opening fact. Thanks, Evan. Thanks to all who responded; I have retained your contact information and will update as appropriate. Maureen
