In Choctaw, with more acreage than most of the metro, we help get the internet from the house to where it's needed: a shop, a barn, a camera on the gate. Inside the house it's the familiar list of slow computers, confusing TVs and phones that need setting up.
What tech help looks like here.
A lot of Choctaw families live on wooded lots with the house set well back from the road. Trees and distance are hard on Wi-Fi, and so is a router left in a front room when everyone spends the evening at the back of the house.
The drive, and what it costs.
From downtown Oklahoma City it's east on I-40, or straight out NE 23rd. Choctaw's ZIP is about 14 miles from downtown Oklahoma City, inside the 25-mile band, so a visit is $110 an hour.

Questions about a visit in Choctaw.
Will you come out to Choctaw?
Yes. Choctaw is part of the Oklahoma City area and a Local Nerd drives out to your place, acreage included.
Is it more for Choctaw because it's farther out?
It isn't. Choctaw is inside the 25-mile band, which is our base rate of $110 an hour. $39 books it.
Can you get a camera on our gate working?
Often, yes. It depends on the distance and whether there's power at the gate. We look first, then tell you whether a wireless link will hold up or the gate needs a cable run.
The trees kill our signal. Is there anything to be done?
Sometimes a lot. Leaves and branches soak up Wi-Fi, so an access point placed with a clearer path can make a real difference. We test before and after so you can see whether it helped.
Our internet out here isn't great. Can you make it better?
We can't change what the provider sends to your house, but we can make sure none of it is wasted: the right router in the right place, nothing hogging the connection, and a straight answer about whether a different kind of service would serve you better.
Can you help my dad with online banking?
Yes. We set it up with him, make sure the password is kept somewhere safe, and show him how to spot the fake emails that pretend to come from his bank.
