EchoStar Rolls out High-Speed Satelite Internet Service
WebKnowHow EchoStar Communications Corporation launched “DISH Network High-Speed Internet powered by WildBlue,” a satellite-delivered broadband Internet service. Now, consumers can bundle the low-priced, all-digital TV service with the convenience and speed of broadband Internet access. “Our customers living in rural communities have endured the slower speeds of dial-up simply because they haven’t had choices when it comes to high-speed Internet service providers,” said Jim DeFranco, executive vice president at EchoStar. “With DISH Network High-Speed Internet powered by WildBlue, they now have access to affordable broadband Internet via satellite with speeds comparable to DSL or cable modem – without the need for an additional phone line.” “There is a large demand for an affordable satellite broadband solution from homes and small businesses that haven’t been able to enjoy high-speed benefits in the past,” said Dave Leonard, CEO of WildBlue. “We’re excited to work with a powerful distributor like EchoStar to make high-speed Internet services powered by WildBlue available to their customers across the country.” Consumers can sign up for service through authorized DISH Network retailers. Packages start at $49.95 per month and include multiple email addresses, web hosting space, and 24/7 DISH Network technical support. A separate satellite dish is required to receive the high-speed Internet service; however an additional phone line is not necessary. EchoStar Communications Corporation serves more than 12.46 million satellite TV customers through its DISH Network.
