First what do you get in terms of internet connectivity? It's slow compared to what you likely get in city limits/town. I don't get cable or dsl where I live. If you move out of town this service won't likely be as fast as what you got before if you get a typical residential plan. If you use multiple devices at the same time it will be slower for each device. So yeah, it is slow. But there are no data caps. Satellite and wireless cell tower services (ATT, Verizon etc.) throttle (slow) your service after you reach a certain usage point. I have heard satellite internet is lousy in most cases. So a service like Total Wireless with no data caps and low latency is the best overall rural option if you like streaming movies or just use a lot of internet bandwidth. Expect some buffering slow downs at times. Again, your expectations should be lower. My experience is that it is adequate if you manage your bandwidth. I hope technology improves in the future to somehow increase speeds.
8/11/16 I will say this about their field tech folks: Never had a bad one. I'd been having some issues recently and a tech came out and moved my service to a new tower by line-of-site. No service charge. You don't see that much any more.
