[AFMUG] Internet for Old Folks

[Nate Burke via Af]

Looking for recommendations on a connection for 'Old Folks'  Who are 
extremely not technical (read parents).  The are in a semi-urban 
setting, but Comcast is their only wired internet option, no DSL, no 
Close WISPS's.  They're on the triple play now, but it's expensive for 
what they use.  They only watch the OTA Channels on their cable, and 
they turn the computer on maybe once per day to check email (and play 
solitaire).  They are not willing to give up a landline phone, as a 
cellphone has too many buttons (they got their flip phone stuck on 
speakerphone, and didn't know how to change it back)

I was hoping at maybe doing like a Verizon hotspot with their Home Voice 
Service via 4G, but that looks like it's almost $90/month. Any other 
cheaper solutions?  I would try to get them to go with an internet only 
comcast option and give them an ATA, but even those are $60+/mo after 
taxes.  And since they're already a customer, I'm not sure if they could 
navigate the Comcast scripts without getting sucked into another triple 
play deal.

From a few Animal Farms ago, there was the company that was selling 
white labeled Cellular connections.  Any WISPS here participate in that 
and can offer 'base station' type services?  Service is needed in 
Northwest Indiana.  I believe that all major carriers have good coverage 
at the location.
