I live south of 466A in the Village of Charlotte. For the last week, usually in the late a.m., early p.m. I have been experiencing outages with the internet. Usually it doesn't last long. It just happens all of a sudden.

Comcast Television can many times be helped by using "System Refresh" which is accessed through the "A" button on your remote.

What is the reason Spectrum can't be north of 466?

I have been with Comcast for 11 years and never had any problems. Great, fast internet with no interruptions during this busy time. Just my experience and I live between 466 and 466A.

Internet is soooo slow. The curser on the computer spins and spins. So bad.

Because Comcast already laid the cable north of 466A. So they have to consider the expense laying their own cable and how many people will switch from Comcast and Century Link. I know I wouldn't switch, I'm happy with CL, been with them 9 years and have only had one outage on the internet the entire 9 years, and was caused by a lightning strike and they repaired the problem in 2 hours. I also have had fiber optic since the beginning, which is 2011, and use no modem. Plug the computer or the router directly into the wall jack.

If you're referring to television, yes, I don't have CL TV, I have Directv for 12 years. If I were to leave them, I would go with streaming, probably youtube TV and then add maybe a couple of other services.
