Where I live, as far as I am aware, the only ISP with any decent speeds is Xfinity and it feels like a monopoly because the other options are much worse.
God I hate Xfinity. The other day I kept having my Internet go down and I thought it was my network switch but I could still see other devices, I thought it was the router but the router only noticed it after 30 seconds, and then I thought it was the modem until I saw in the app that there was an "outage" to my service.
I called them 3 times before someone finally stopped trying to blame me for using a 3rd party modem and that they had to fix something.
The day another company comes in and provides fiber, I'm out.
What are you saying DSL isn't good enough for modern technology? /s
You guys are getting DSL?
Yea I'm stuck with spectrum that used to be Time Warner. Funny thing is I just checked our cable bill online and they list the fees.
