| Subject: Wireless Service | Date: 08/25/2010 | Author: Fred Brown | Last Reply Date: | Last Reply By: |
| Wireless service is soon to begin at Joe's Pond. The signal will come from a farm silo above Joe's Pond. The service will be AT&T. I contacted Verizon and, they said that Verizon service will not be available from the new silo. I also learned this from the owner of another silo in Cabot that has a wireless antenna, and he said the new silo antenna will be the same as his - no Verizon signal. He said that if Verizon received enough complaints, they might be persuaded to install an antenna in each Cabot silo. If you are looking for another way to receive service for your Verizon phone at the pond, I received this email from Angela Buttura: "Just wanted to inform you that Verizon has a wireless network extender for those people who have a wireless connection for their computer. You can purchase it from any Verizon store or online. I have been told that until Aug 31 they are running a special. They cost $200, but there is a $99 rebate until then. I have four bars on my cell phone using this device at my camp. It is supposed to be good for 500 feet, so I have been told." Here is a link to the Verizon network extender page: www.verizonwireless.com/b2c/store/accessory?action=gotoFemtocell In order to get the deal, you have to click on "Buy Now". I did that, and the price I saw was $149 (not $99), but perhaps I missed something - Angela referred to a rebate, which I didn't see. I don't have one of these network extenders myself, so I know very little about them. You can get this extender service as a part of your current Verizon contract (no additional fees). You have to log in to your Verizon account to set up the service. You have to have a broadband connection for the extender service to work. Also, it appears you have to have a wireless router that will transmit the signal from your computer to your cell phone. Reply to this comment OR Edit/Delete this comment | ||||

| We learned today that wireless transmission equipment is now being installed in a silo on the Sousa farm above Joe's Pond. This should enable coverage from Hardwick to Danville, including Walden and West Danville. A subcontractor for AT and T said that wireless transmission from the silo should be up and running in four to eight weeks.
