Attention Yolo County Customers

(1) Speeds and service vary by location and governed by distance to transmitters and/or relays, type of antenna, quality of connection, network traffic, Internet traffic and router relays as well as other factors beyond our control. Speeds listed are those expected under ideal conditions from a hard-wired connection to the power injector. Service past the power injector is dependent on any variables. Speed over WiFi tend to be slower. Your speed may be lower or even higher. Overall bandwidth is shared by all customers and devices connected to the network at any given time. The number of devices connected at your location and their activity influence your individual performance. (Network devices typically include computers, laptop devices, tablets, smart phones, gaming consoles, etc.)
(2) All services not available at all locations. Check with Castles staff for availability of a specific service at your location.

(3) Customer must provide their own wireless router. Routers may be purchased at office supply stores, big box stores, electronic supply store or online.

(4) N/A
(5) Installation prices shown are typical residential installs. Custom or unique installs may require additional labor and/or equipment which would result in a price adjustment. Commercial installs may be higher and require a non-penetrating roof mount. Commercial installs are priced according to the nature of the individual site.
(6) Castles cannot gurantee burstable rate over 15 air miles from tower.

*Suitable for basic Internet. May not be suitable for streaming videos and does not support HD streaming.
**Castles Point-to-Multipoint is a shared access network. Speeds are relative to cutomer premise equipment (radios, routers, network cards, etc.) and customer environment (local wifi interferences, customer wifi range, etc.). Both download and upload speeds are impacted by the number of customers online at any given time, what the customer is doing as well as others at that location, upstream provider issues, and the list goes on.
***Service calls are billed at $75 per hour. Castles will normally troubleshoot a wireless issue remotely and customers are expected to cooperate with both phone support techs and field techs. Techs will work through a troubleshooting checklist with the customer to get service restored as quick as possible. In most case, the customer should reboot all equipment when there is an issue - this typically restores service.
