My last job used USAi.net for service to our office in the Seaport area. Great guys, they really know their stuff and had very quick turnaround of our circuit. I would be happy to pass on contact information, if you need any. They also offered to negotiate with Comcast (the only other provider in the area) on our behalf for a backup circuit.
One caveat: the equipment they ordered suddenly went on back order and so we had to use temporary APs. That being said, our service was not really negatively impacted. -Matt On Jul 22, 2014 7:10 PM, "Tom Metro" <[email protected]> wrote: > Tom Metro wrote: > > I'm looking to get business class Internet service for a home office.
