| Skybeam Sucks I was transferred from GWE.net to Skybeam.
What is this? No tech support, now the webmail is down,
I get a bogus notice that makes no sense.
This is clearly a financial instrument of funded takeovers
of smaller ISP's w/out the mission or infrastructure to
support customers.
I'm going elsewhere, hope the investors lose
their cynical bundle.

| Skybeam is totally the worst When Mesa had it everything was great. Since Skybeam took over I have daily outages, long hold times and over the past two weeks I've stopped being able to go to a lot of websites, msn.com as one of them. I am a home based business so this is a huge problem for me. Unfortunately, I have no options but wireless. I never, never thought I would say this, but Skybeam is worst than Qwest in every way shape or form. If you have other options, I HIGHLY recommend going with someone else. You will not be happy with Skybeam. | |

| Re: Skybeam - Great Price The above reply is either someone who has no idea what internet service should be like, or an employee of Skybeam.
11pm on a Saturday, and here's what Skybeam's service looks like:

Computing statistics for 100 seconds...

Trace complete.
21% lost packets from their first hop, incredibly slow speeds....and this is what it's like during non-prime time hours, you can imagine how it is during "busy times".
For months now I've been told by Skybeam they are "Waiting on equipment" to fix the issue out here, but it's become obvious this is not true. I can only hope that anyone considering them for net service has other options and is smart enough to use them because, hands-down, Skybeam is the worst ISP I've ever had, and I've seen plenty...from Cox cable to PacBell to Comcast to Qwest. Skybeam makes them look like they invented the internet.... | |
