100 MPS for $55 per month for internet only.

Just so there is no confusion, the bandwidths (nominal) are given in units of megabits per second. This may also be presented as "Mbps". Upload and download bandwidths are typically different.

As a former computer store owner, but that was a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away. I was trying to be consistent with a previous poster DARFAP. However, you are correct! 100 Mbps download :laugh:

My Comcast bill for Internet (blast) and landline just about doubled. I don't have exact figures because I have a promotion that expires in February but it appears that it will go from $62 to around $115. THis is the first time I've not been able to work with someone on the phone to get another promotion. I am looking for options. We live in Amelia. I'd prefer to stay with Comcast if I could find a way to negotiate.

Exact same thing here. I had to "negotiate" price down just keep it at double what I was paying.

Directv Now has the golf channel.Directv Now is the streaming version of Directv, though it doesn't have everything Directv does.

I'm thinking of Century Link for Internet and Landline. There was one thread that seemed to have positive ratings for it. Did anyone have a problem with Century Linkfor Internet and/or phone?

If you really want/need a landline, look into the Voice-over-IP offerings such as Ooma. You may find it is lower cost than using CenturyLink for a landline.
