5 Reasons Ranchers in Dry Creek Valley Switch From Satellite to Fixed Wireless
Living and working on a ranch in Dry Creek Valley comes with unique demands—reliable internet should not be one of your daily battles. As more ranchers depend on connected irrigation systems, online sales, wildlife cameras, and remote workers, slow or inconsistent satellite service becomes a major roadblock.
That’s why so many Dry Creek Valley ranchers are making the switch to AVISP fixed-wireless internet—a faster, more stable, locally powered solution built specifically for our rural Wine Country communities.
If you’re weighing your options, here are the 5 biggest reasons ranchers are swapping satellite for fixed wireless.
1. True Low-Latency Internet—No More Satellite Lag
Satellite internet signals travel thousands of miles into space and back, causing frustrating delays during:
Video calls (lagging audio)
Online meetings
Streaming
Uploading large files (real estate images, wine club videos, surveillance footage)
AVISP’s fixed wireless network delivers service from local tower sites—just miles away, not miles into orbit.
➡️ Result: noticeably faster response times, smoother video calls, and better performance for every device on the ranch.
2. Reliable Service in All Weather Conditions
Rain fade, cloud cover, and wind storms all take a toll on satellite connections. Dry Creek Valley ranchers know weather changes fast—and so does satellite performance.
Fixed wireless delivers a ground-based signal that isn’t affected by storms, making it ideal for:
Vineyard monitoring systems
Ranch management operations
Work-from-home setups
Security camera networks
When the weather shifts, your internet doesn’t have to.
3. Better Speeds for a Growing Ranch Lifestyle
Many ranch homes now support:
Smart TVs
Security camera systems
Wi-Fi calling
Remote workstations
Smart devices and automation
Kids’ online schoolwork
Satellite plans often throttle speeds or cap data once you reach a limit.
AVISP has no data caps, no throttling, no slowdowns, and offers speeds designed to handle busy rural households.
