Looks like the new houses seem to only have Xfinity so I will likely have to go with that but how are the speeds as it is my understanding with Cable internet you share with other customers so you are never really getting the Highest speed advertised.
Also if and when other services become available it is worth changing?
Thanks in Advance  |
Up in the "historic section" (far northeast corner, on the other side of 441/27), we can get GB service with xfinity.
Most of us don't, but it's available.
I have 100mbps service, which is sufficient for streaming, browsing, and gaming if you're into that. I just did a check with speedtest.net and it's pinging at 25, downloading at 90.78 (connected directly to my router, which is then connected to my modem - I own both, I don't rent), and upload on the slow side at 6.01 but that's about as good as you can get with this plan anyway.
I pay $50 a month for internet only, and we Roku with Youtube TV.
