Default Re: Recommendations for Phone Service, Cable & Internet Access

If you want the fastest possible internet service provider (ISP), Comcast is the way to go; they are the more expensive than Embarq DSL, but in my opinion they are worth it. Comcast gives you a discount if you have their cable TV and Internet service. Embarq likes to say that they have high speed internet service also, but it's at a slower rate unless you pay a fair amount more than the "cheaper" rate that they like to advertise.

You're pretty much stuck with Embarq for local landline telephone service unless you want to use an ISP based service like Vonage. As for cell phone service, I've had Nextel and Sprint cellular service and their coverage is excellent in the area.
