Are my speeds guaranteed?

Rise Broadband cannot guarantee speeds at all times, as there are many factors and conditions beyond Rise Broadband’s control that can affect Internet performance. Some of these factors and conditions are:

a. Performance of subscriber computer and/or router
b. Type of connection to RISE BROADBAND Customer Premise Equipment (i.e. WIFI)
c. Number of devices at the same time on a subscriber’s network
d. Downloading large files
e. Congestion of web sites and services on Internet
f. Network congestion due to number of subscriber’s using network at a particular time
g. Website or service limiting speeds on the Internet
h. Internet performance outside of the RISE BROADBAND Network
i. Inclement weather (i.e. storms, tornados, etc.) ​

Rise Broadband Internet packages are advertised as “up to” certain speeds reflecting performance under ideal conditions. Without purchasing an expensive “dedicated” Internet connection, no Internet Service Provider can guarantee package speeds at all times.

What services are available?

Rise Broadband provides high-speed Internet and digital phone (also called Voice over Internet Protocol or “VoIP”).

What types of speed do I need for different online activities?

“​The size of the average email is about 100 kilobits while the average webpage without video is about 200 kilobits.
A typical video on a webpage may use about 1000 kilobits per second (or 1 Mbps).
An HD streaming video typically ranges between 2.5 Mbps to 4 Mbps.
As you stream video your need for a continuous amount of high speed data connectivity goes up exponentially.”
