Highest Rated Satellite Broadband Provider

Denver, Colorado - WildBlue Communications, Inc. today announced that it received a "BBR Gold Award" from BroadbandReports.com.    WildBlue ranks as the only satellite broadband provider to receive a gold star rating from the industry site.  WildBlue provides high-speed Internet access via satellite to homes and small businesses in communities not currently served, or underserved, by other high speed providers.

 

WildBlue scored above an 80 percent satisfaction rating for over six months on BroadbandReports.com to win the gold award.  Broadband Reports runs an ongoing good-bad-ugly chart to track the performance of broadband companies. The BBR Awards, introduced in February 2004, recognize companies that score well on the chart. WildBlue scored highest in "Install Coordination," "Connection Reliability," "Pre-Sales Information," and "Value for Money."

 

 "We are extremely honored to receive the BBR Gold Award," said David Leonard, WildBlue's Chief Executive Officer.  "This award truly is an industry standard, and we are pleased that our customers are happy with the service WildBlue provides, and that WildBlue is emerging as a service leader in the satellite broadband market.  This is a testament to the hard work of WildBlue?s employees."
