3Mbps Class Service: 1 static IP and 5 email addresses each with 100 Mb of personal web & mail server storage per email account.

The system uses shared bandwidth between many users on the same access point. We make our best effort to always provide at 3 Mbps web downloads, but your speeds may vary due to congestion, interference or environment factors. All uploads and other protocols (i.e.  FTP, SSH, NNTP etc) download at 1 Mbps max.

To take maximum advantage of the Lucketts.net broadband service, the customer should have at least one computer with a working ethernet port. Anything less could seriously hamper your web-surfing experience. Lucketts.net technicians can install ethernet cards, cable, routers, firewalls and do general in-home networking for an additional fee. 

Billing is done via email, with an invoice being sent out 10 days before the bill is due. Since almost all of our customers have computers, we rely on e-mail billing. Snail mail (USPS) billing is available for those that must have paper copies sent in envelopes. Our billing service is quite happy to do that for us, but since they charge us by the  piece, we pass that extra cost on as a fee of $2.50/month.  For those customers without computers, we may waive the extra fee.

If you pay in advance for 6 months, you save $5 per month (total $30 saved). If you pay 1 year in advance, you save $10 per month (total $120 saved).  We accept Amex, Discover, MasterCard and VISA.  If you have to move before the year is up, we pro-rate the time you used to the normal rates and refund the unused balance.

We no longer sell the radios to customers, and hesitate to use a customer supplied radio. Radios can cause trouble on the network if they are damaged, and they cannot be freely swapped out during a service call if we do not own them. And if we need to change the radio band serving an area, the customer owned radio may not be compatible with the new network. If you are an existing customer and own your radio, you save $10/month on your monthly bill. For those original customers who bought radios from us, if your radio dies we will replace it and adjust you to the normal price plan. .

Standard Installation installs a suitable radio by bracket or satellite dish mount on exterior or attic of home, and includes up to 50 ft of cable brought into attic or basement or penetration of 1 wall, and configuration of PC or router to work with network. Not included: fishing wires through walls, installing your home network, poles, tripods, towers. If an installation requires amplified radios or special antennas or additional equipment, a custom quote will be provided.

Domain hosting includes 500Megabyte disk space on server for www.yourdomain.com with 5 email accounts at yourname(s)@yourdomain.com. You will have administrative control of most domain and email parameters through a web interface similar to the web-mail interface on our Standard Plan.
