Comcast is the best Internet service provider in The Villages period. This may sting a bit because people love to hate Comcast but Google results show the speeds it sees on our area. Comcast gets an HD rating while Bright house and Century Link are rated as standard definition quality. They rate these ISPs based on video streaming rates from there YouTube servers. The numbers don't lie.

The best modem is the Motorola Surfboard 6141. Best not try and save a few bucks here. Buy the good one.
If you sign up for Comcast Internet you can use there coax cable network like a huge antenna and get all the channels you'd get if I sold and installed an antenna for you.
