I have had three service calls in the last month and a half, replaced two modems and a DVR and I still have problems. They checked the lines both in and out of the house and the service tech couldn't find a problem, so he replaced the connectors on the lines. My internet connection still keeps dropping. It doesn't look good for us when we move down there full time if our choices are Comcast or Charter.................
Contact Tom from villages AV in the responses above. The option here are:

Cable: bright house (aka charter), Comcast (aka xfinity)
Fiber to the premises: centurylink prism.
Satellite: direct TV, dish network.

After talking to some of my insider contacts, looks like the merger will be done by the end of the year.

Tom can hook you up with contacts for each of the providers, he is the go to guy for AV in these parts.
