Range Telephone Cooperative, Inc. Overview and Availability

About Range Telephone Cooperative, Inc. Internet

Sometimes, a small local company is the best choice for phone and Internet service. In the case of Dubois Telephone Exchange, a subsidiary of Range Telephone Cooperative, customers who don't have access to service from other providers can benefit from the same high speeds and reliability offered in metropolitan areas. In remote regions, larger companies often do not have the funds to serve small communities or the ability to run connections out to rural areas. Dubois Telephone Exchange exclusively serves rural Wyoming and rural Colorado, which means they excel at providing coverage in remote rural areas. Currently, over 2,600 families and businesses are part of the DTE family.

Phone service is one of the primary services provided by DTE. Simple Solutions include local service, caller ID, call waiting, three-way calling, and voicemail. They also have premium packages that let you add repair/replacement options for damaged wires and modems. Business customers have a wider range of features that they can add, including call forwarding, anonymous call rejection, automatic callback, and speed calling.

If you add Internet service to your phone service package, you may be able to get a discount on your high-speed Internet. With a business package, for example, you get a 5% discount with a one-year contract, a 10% discount with a two-year contract, and a 15% discount with a three-year contract. With a one-year residential contract, you get a 15% broadband discount. Broadband packages available to DTE customers include 6Mbps, 10Mbps, and 20Mbps. Each account gets five e-mail accounts.

With a broadband contract, you can choose to add SecureIT Complete Computer Protection to your service. This is an automated antivirus and anti-spyware program. It's also possible to add parental controls, live technical support, content filters, and online backup for an additional monthly fee.
