TV Shutdown on-Schedule
Our RodeoTV service will be terminating on schedule March 31, 2024. This is
our third notice about that. Final bills for TV will be sent out on the 1st
of April. We appreciate all our TV customers, but unfortunately the cost of
acquisition, delivery and support for the TV system has gotten out of hand.
We were seeing pricing for channels go up in some cases 30-40%!
We strongly recommend FuboTV if you want a good replacement option in terms
of cost. It's still going to be $90-100 for most folks but it does have the
locals and it's got a lot of sports.
Upgrade updates
We are still awaiting some logistical issues to work themselves out then we
will implement our next round of system upgrades. We have been on hold about
3 weeks as we wait for some new equipment for the network. It should be
arriving early next week with an installation date a day or two after. This
final piece is some amazing technology that will provide us with way more
capacity than ever before. It also will help us manage the network better.
During these upgrade cycles you can expect small, brief outages either in
some, none or all of the network. They should usually be less than 20-30
mins and will occur next week some time. A few hours before we work on the
networks, we'll post notices here and let everyone know we are being busy
beavers and building stuff. our plan is not to be too intrusive and do most
of the work late at night this go around.like between midnight and 2AM.
Fiber Rollout - Grantham
We are on track for our Fiber Rollout in the Grantham area beginning
sometime around April 15. They are still testing circuits, but we are all
primed and ready to go and it seems like we have a TON of new customers to
put on Fiber.
IF you know someone in the Grantham area and they would like FIBER OPTIC
SPEED to the home, refer them to us. You'll get a discount on your next
month of internet and they will get a discount on their first month too!
It's a win-win-win!
Phone Service Moving - Temporary Interruptions and Backup number
We are moving phone services this week. We have a new VOIP system for our
office we are implementing. IF you have issues getting through to us, you
can always email, or call our "special" number: 509-210-3023. We'll be here,
just tinkering with a new gadget!
Home and Garden Show Report
We were at the Home and Garden show at the Nez Perce Fair Pavilion that was
sponsored by KAT-FM. It was a great time and we got a chance to talk to more
than 175 folks that stopped by the booth. We gave away a $25 gift card to
Schurman's Hardware in Clarkston, and a brand new home router. Lots of folks
came by and talked to us about their internet, and it was very interesting
to hear their experiences with other providers. We also got to meet several
of our existing customers and it was good to catch up with them!
As always, we greatly appreciate our Rodeo Networks customers. you all are
the best!
Your Rodeo Networks Team!
