Hello NANOG! I'm doing some research regarding short-term (~1 week) high speed (~10-15Mb down/at least 5Mbps up) wireless connectivity in the Heber City, UT area. The only provider I found was Blaze (http://www.blazewifi.com) (besides ILECs/incumbents). Does anyone have any experience with them? I'm also open to other provider suggestions I might be missing. The potential usage site is about 10 miles LOS east/south-east from downtown Heber City. Thank you! Brandon

Not to get too political, but is this for the Rainbow Family Gathering? (First thought based on location/duration.) I haven't dealt with Blaze, but depending on your event's tax status (NPO/charity?), you might be able to get some help from local-ish business. I know some of the ISPs in the Salt Lake valley have been known to do some pro bono work; I'm not sure about Utah County. (Google Fiber in Provo springs to mind, but I don't imagine there's any way you could get a signal down Provo Canyon or over the mountains.) Otherwise, Zach's suggestion aside, I'd see whether any businesses in Heber proper might be able to lend/sublet you bandwidth, and look into point-to-point wireless. Jima
