One of the providers listed at Broadband now, which PastTense mentioned above, is Atlantic Broadband. Their service map (link below) shows they offer fiber optic service up to 1000 mbps in the Aiken/Williston area.
I recently switched to service from OTRMobile.com. AT&T 4G hotspot with unlimited usage for $60/month. I’m getting speeds of 40+ Mb/s. In rural Northern CA. There aren’t even any phone lines in the immediate area. Nice thing was that AT&T set up a generator next to the local tower, so I still had internet even when the power company turned us off recently.
Thanks all, this is very helpful.
Atlantic Broadband’s map is unfortunately pretty optimistic. Unless you are on one of the main roads you still can’t get service, even though they say they serve that zip code.
I’m guessing there will be a bit of trial and error (and $$) before we get it figured out.
