The Son of Sci-Fi Rudy Rucker has teamed up with a clever crew to create a new MonkeyBrains wireless ISP service providing WiFi connections in the San Francisco area.
The new wireless ISP service is designed to provide a reliable 10-30mbps connection for $40 per month.
‘MonkeyBrains guarantees at least 10 Mbps symmetrical and most customers see 15-20 Mbps. Some customers see 25-30 Mbps with a good connection. According to [a company employee], this depends on the company’s backhaul connection, which is in the process of being upgraded. Once that happens, he expects 30 Mbps+ connections will be common.’
Affordable and Reliable Internet Service
MonkeyBrains aims to bridge the digital divide by offering affordable and reliable internet service to residents and businesses in the San Francisco area. The service is particularly appealing to those who have been underserved by traditional ISPs, which often charge higher rates for similar or even inferior speeds. By leveraging advanced wireless technology, MonkeyBrains can bypass the need for extensive cabling infrastructure, thereby reducing costs and installation times.
To join the service, there is a slightly hefty $250 bill to install your required antenna, but there are offers by MonkeyBrains offering a few free months of service to compensate for the initial setup. This initial investment is quickly offset by the competitive monthly rate of $40, which is significantly lower than many other providers in the area. Additionally, the company often runs promotions and discounts, making it even more accessible for new customers.
Community and Customer Support
MonkeyBrains is not just about providing internet service; it’s about building a community. The company prides itself on excellent customer support and community engagement. They offer a range of resources to help customers get the most out of their service, including online tutorials, troubleshooting guides, and a responsive customer service team. This focus on customer satisfaction has earned MonkeyBrains a loyal customer base and positive reviews.
Moreover, MonkeyBrains is committed to continuous improvement. The company is constantly upgrading its infrastructure to ensure that customers receive the best possible service. For example, the ongoing upgrades to the backhaul connection are expected to make 30 Mbps+ connections common, further enhancing the user experience. This commitment to innovation and quality sets MonkeyBrains apart from many other ISPs.
In addition to residential services, MonkeyBrains also offers solutions for businesses. Their business plans include higher speeds and additional features tailored to meet the needs of small to medium-sized enterprises. This makes MonkeyBrains a versatile option for both personal and professional use.
Overall, MonkeyBrains is revolutionizing the way San Francisco accesses the internet. With its affordable pricing, reliable speeds, and strong community focus, it’s no wonder that more and more people are making the switch to this innovative wireless ISP.
