Sounds like North part of the County may soon have better Internet than SoWal.

I work from home in Grayton. I use Mediacom and have had very few problems over the years.

North part of the county definitely needs something. I believe they too are able to get DSL through CenturyLink but to make a wireless call from my father-in-law's home in Glendale requires driving the truck to the field, parking on top of a terrace and then climbing on top of the truck. And that's with Verizon.
I have CenturyLink and have issues as well. For the vacationer needing internet access, most beach areas in South Walton have cable internet with Mediacom. The west end of Panama City Beach has Wow.
