I've heard good stuff about both, but i've heard bad stuff about both also.

can someone help me because i'm confused about which service i should subscribe to.
they're both relatively similarly priced, i just need to know which one is more
reliable, safer, and quicker.

can someone help?

thanks:confused:

Optimum's DL speed blows any DSL out of the water and there UL is also generous. I havent experienced may outages...maybe 3 in almost the year I've had the service and they all lasted not longer than a few hours or overnight in one case.

The bad:
The email and news servers are somewhat unreliable from what I hear so plan for outages. Also OOL does not like people utilizing fully te upload. If you want to upload/email small files every now and then its one thing but if you want to run a server or sit there with kazaa open for days letting people download off of you, then they will do something about you.
