Do you have more than one broadband option available in your neighborhood?

[Nocturnal]

I keep hearing about Comcast and Optimum Online which offer I guess "extreme" packages which give you like what is it... 800KBps/120KBps speeds. Is this right? If not, what are the common speeds with the "extreme" packages?

I only have RR and Verizon DSL here. I wish more cable companies would come out here and give a boost to the competition.

 

[Fiveohhh]

[Anubis]

Ive got road Runner and Frontier dsl

[Kalvin00]

If you're closer to town here, you can get DSL and cable. Here, cable is the only option. Unfortunately i'm still on dialup...

 

[Corporate Thug]

[EMPshockwave82]

[flxnimprtmscl]

No wireless, no cable, no dsl. The one downside of the country.

SBC DSL and Comcast Cable

I'm on the SBC DSL, "Extreme Plus Package" or something like that. 6Mbps up/ 640kbps down I think.

Cable/DSL here.

DSL seems to be the better option with 1024/256 for $28/mo. Comparable Cable Solution is 1024/128 for $35+5 modem Rental. Just cancelled my Cable internet of 6 years and while turning over the modem to Charter Communications, I realized that I paid for that modem 4x over. Should me my modem.

As far as I know there is only Rogers cable and Sympatico Dsl, but Sympatico has a max limit on how much you can download/upload per month, so we have cable.

Cable and DSL here. I remember just a few years ago we had neither. But once comcast put there foot in the door sprint hurried up and provided dsl. figures. :roll:

 

[beatmix01]

I can get Cable and DSL. However, being that the cable I have is OptimumOnline, nothing is getting me to switch anytime soon.

optonline gets me this 2416 / 861 kbps

 

[ProviaFan]

Wireless, DSL, and Cable are the only ones I know of here. I could probably get a T3 or OC-192 or something if I had millions of dollars, but I can't even afford cable (which is $50 or so per month), so I've not bothered to check into those options.

 

[thomsbrain]

wireless, DSL, cable, etc. if it exists, we can probably get it.

[OZEE]

Dialup only here...

 

[Schadenfroh]

comcast or dialup

 

[Modeps]

We've got SNET/SBC DSL, NETPLEX DSL (using sbc's lines), and Comcast.

 

[RossMAN]

We have cable and DSL.

Although cable is faster, DSL is cheaper and our older ReplayTV 3060 can still dial in via modem.

 

[Maverick]

can only get DSL through SBC or clecs on SBC lines

 

[oniq]

SBC/SNET DSL.. 768kbps max as I'm out too far to get anything faster .. and Cox Cable.. thanks but no thanks ;D

 

[Krazy4Real]

SBC DSL and Comcast Cable.

I'm using cable.

 

[mugs]

How about less than one? I can't get broadband where I live.

 

[Aves]

Charter Pipeline or BellSouth DSL
