It only took 23 years…

But Casa River finally has fiber optic high speed internet.

When we moved to our house in the country in 2002, the only option was dial up. Anyone out there old enough to remember that screeching nightmare?

The next step came ten years later, but it was only Broadband and if a few of our neighbors were online at the same time? It was buggy and slow as molasses.

When streaming became popular, we were out of luck and I ended up watching shows on my 7 inch cell phone screen. Not great, but better than nothing.

And then Fidium came to town, laying their magical lines and hooking up all us speed deprived residents.

To be honest, Fidium would not have been my first choice. Their website and apps are shite, full of error messages and links that go nowhere. Their customer service is awful, with wait times of an hour to speak to a human. The installers were supposed to bring a WiFi extender so we could connect the man cave /Barn Mahal tv… but they didn’t.

Is it perfect?

No. But it’s the only game in town ….

And I can now watch AppleTV on an actual tv!

So it’s progress.

🤣
