Where do you live? Oceanic is in major expansion mode in Central HPP, stringing cable on several roads in the past six weeks.

Cheers,

I thought Oceanic was at the bottom of Makuu Drive, Beach Road area? Only the people in the middle of HPP was suffering without Oceanic. We recently got their service late last year.

Yikes, $70/month. Is that even near worth it?

It allows "streaming video" - have five grandkids - the youngest just took her first step for us on webcam - worth it? PRICELESS! []

(Until the money runs out. [])

Edit: Forgot - it has not made it anywhere near us - Heh! macuu2222 - what's your take?

Hmmm you think its will make it to Beaches? They told me the 10 and 15 was not available in my area... so I don't expect to see 20 any time soon.

The fastest RR speed available on the neighbor islands currently is 5Mbps. OTW withdrew the availability of 8Mbps RR service a few months ago on the neighbor islands. The reason for this was due to a lack of inter island bandwidth.


The 15Mbps service is only available in selected areas of Oahu.

Which means 20Mbps will also not be available in Puna...
