We will be getting fiber from Quantum after they finish destroying our neighborhood (what a mess) and will decide what else to get.
Is that what all the digging up of yards along Canal was about two weeks ago?

Didn't make any sense to me why they'd need three hours to hook up a modem, or what wifi has to do with it, so I round-filed it. But I'm still curious. $60 for internet is obscene. It doesn't seem that long ago that $30 seemed like a rip-off.
Currently the for life, but not their equipment lease, taxes & fees. That makes sense to me, the equipment will age and or need to be upgraded & taxes are unpredictable. I guess the fees part just goes along with new or replaced equipment & taxes. You could lower the monthly cost by using your own modem/extenders & handling yourself the cost of future upgrades. Their website lists $50 a month.

We use Quantum Fiber and both a tv antenna and free streaming. Works great for us.

Hello Friends.

Spectrum again raised our plan cost. Now at $300. a month.
All we need is internet & cable tv. Any advice is greatly appreciated .
Thanks to all and wishing a Happy 4th of July.

Really need more information as to what your service with Spectrum included! We pay $175 with Spectrum and have 300mbs and Spectrum TV App that we stream. No cable boxes. We also have their cell phone service for $29.99 unlimited everything and that includes all taxes and fees. Hard to beat that.

Yes. Now they are digging up lawns laying fiber. Wonder when they will be ready to install in homes?

Thanks Stu. I saw the carnage on the houses that back to Canal, & when I went by several days later with my much more longer in the Villages friends to ask what they thought was up, the ditches were covered over & the only remains were the little orange flags to show where they had been. At least they work fast. (By the way, I have Quantum & it is great).
