Hey there everyone! I found out I am probably going to be moving about a year from next month or so. While that does seem far away, it will probably sneak up on me like no time at all. Anyway, I know that SL does not work on dial up, so I was wondering if anyone knew of a site that had broadband coverage maps so that I would know what my chances are of having coverage when I move or a good all purpose site that points you in the right direction for getting broadband access in a particular area. The problem with moving is that I have no idea where it would be other than in the state of Missouri. That's it. Any help? Thanks in advance!

heh this reminds me...

We're in the UK so it won't be much help to you but ...

When we were moving house we rang British Telecom to ask for a list of Broadband connected towns and villages in the area we wanted to move to...

"Oh No..." said the manager who took the call, "we can't do that, it's sensitive company information, we're not allowed to give out that kind of information" ...

... and then ... in the next breath he said ...


"but if you give me a postcode ( zip code ) I can tell you whether it has broadband or not "


:rolleyes:


...needless to say we sent him a list of every single postcode in Dorset ! lol



Good luck with your move :)
