Ogero HDSL (for business)

NewBie

Does anyone have experience with the Ogero HDSL connection in their business ? I was checking the ogero website, but i couldnt find if you get a dedicated IP or not.

any help is appreciated.

You get 4 or 5 IPs. Speed is constant 2.3mbps. It's way better than any other solution for small to medium level businesses. Support is not the same as the one you get from 1515 for adsl users.

scroll to the bottom and click "click to view monthly subscription prices."

there you'll find all the prices/month for each speed tier.

to install the line+with the modem(and other stuff) will cost ya $602 and each month will cost you $200/month.

but seriously... who is going to be foolish enough for pay for this rubbish option when you can easily consume that 8GB(meant for a month) in a matter of 8Hours straight(less than half a day!!!)

F*ckin a man! lol are they serious?! i would have thought 'Business' plans were definitely unlimited... or have a large limit... but 8 GBs!?!?!?!?! = less than 1 dvd9??! = WTF?!

i believe you can get a static dedicated ip on any DSL connection with extra pay . "not so sure about this fact"

I believe I'm foolish enough apparently. The plan is ideal for small to medium level *businesses*, this is not your customary "Download everything you see in front of you". We used to pay ~1000$ per month for dedicated bandwidth of 256/128. Now we're paying ~ 600$ per month on average with 10 times the speed.

Better performance at lower cost? Yes please.

100GB per month can go for about $1200 using this connection type.
I know for a fact this can't be implemented in some open office environments due to the abusive download habits they have.

Max this connection out for all it's worth, and you can end up paying $7500.

Back at office, I think they used to pay around $4-5K. It works for some, not for others..

Guys, the reason I asked is not for gaming or for downloading dvds, its for actual business use. The employees will not be allowed to go around and download everything in their sight. It will be used for browsing, email and getting your work done.

I got quoted for over $2000 for 256kbps line and an insane installation fee. If you have other suggestions please go ahead.

I sent you a PM that includes the details for a guy who does satellite internet connections for a fraction of these prices ! with more speed . it is illegal , but who cares as long as you do not cross some certain lines .

jadberro - as far as i know satellites won't provide much better offer. Capacity on them cost a lot... only big dish can drop down price a bit (by reusing higher modulation). Reasonable to install it if you are paying at least $3k+ / month.
Sometimes services works fine(very cheap, no limits, fast), but not for long time. I just know satellite market very well, miracles impossible there.

as i remember when i contacted the guy , the price was out of range for a household but pretty reasonable for a small company . Newbie , when you contact the guy post plan details .
