Completely understand how you feel. I had comcast and NEVER received the download speed that I paid for. BUT, they were sure to call me and ask me if I wanted to pay a bit more for faster internet. They couldn't deliver what I was paying for but they kept increasing the monthly bill until I finally dropped them completely. I found out that the home I purchased a couple years ago already had fiber optic run to it by Centurylink and gave them a call. Not only did they install free, gave me a modem/router free, but their cost for five times the speed was cheaper and permanent. I now get more channels streaming using a Roku stick. Comcast charges over $25 in just fees and taxes. All cable TV providers charge the fees and taxes, but you can pretty much eliminate them by streaming TV via the Internet. I had heard stories about how bad Centurylink was, but I have not seen it yet. I have much faster Internet than I did before, getting over 600Mbps and stream 4K shows with NO buffering. Maybe I am an exception, but it may be something you can look into. I don't think I would go DSL. I had that up North and did not like it. Some folks are happy with Comcast/Xfinity. I suggest that if you decide to stay with them, get your own modem (a good one). Why pay comcast for renting your modem?
