We moved here almost two months ago and are using Comcast (Xfinity) and internet working well. Not as thrilled with their cable service but dealing with it.

Hello!
We also just moved to the Villages. I carefully checked all the service providers and their plans As well as customer reviews. We decided on Xfinity (25 MBs) at $20 per month for first year. ($30.00 per month if you don’t set up autopay). We Bought our own modem/wireless router from Bestbuy which is right behind the Xfinity store on 441 (xfinity provides a list of compatible ones). Otherwise you will need to rent one for $14.99 per month vs $220 to purchase. We also bought an LG smart TV and when we got it set up and connected to the internet we were delighted to see all the included apps on the tv. It has a “free tv station app” that has loads of channels so we can get our news fix and view other shows. So far the internet service has been flawless and signal is very strong.
Good luck, hope this helps.

Centurylink is very good. We use youtubeTv streaming for Tv better than direct tv.

Anyone other than Comcast/Xfinity. Terrible experience with them in TV. Moving to new house in May and I am leaning towards Spectrum. They even have a local office.

If you can get AT&T fios, try that. It should be the fastest available, but I'm not sure of the cost.

We have Century Link also same as mentioned above for $45 for life and no problems. Plenty of speed for multiple TVs using You Tube TV.

I have Century Link 1GB for $65/mo, they bring optical fiber right into my office in the house. Service is wonderful. The price is for life and no taxes etc

We went with spectrum. Also we are streaming using U tube TV. This gives you local channels and a decent selection of other channels plus ability to tape shows without extra equipment

Spectrum if you're in their area or Comcast. Century Link usually has 2-year specials.

No, that is not really correct. CenturyLink typically (exclusively ??) has a "one price for life" pricing structure. As long as you don't change your service, the price will not change. For example, ours is $45 per month including all taxes and fees and doesn't change.
