I'm going to repeat myself from another post:
It all depends on what part of The Villages you live inorder to compare services.
In my section, north of 441 (County Club) the
Century Link service is
THE WORST I have ever experienced.
My internet speed does not go higher then 2.06 Mbps, meaning I can't do anything but wait for pages to load. forget about wanting to watch YouTube videos, very frustrating!!

So when we talk about these internet service providers we should also include the area we are receiving this service.
For example, my area the service works off telephone lines while in the newer areas they work off coaxial cable or fiber optics (Video, Voice and Internet services)...
