In the case of Dish here in my area they partner with Embarq and they provide DSL service. I found for me it was better not to bundle the DishNetwork and Embarq Internet service. *When you get the Embarq DSL and landline phone service they force a bundle of phone "services" that would make my phone bill part of the service go up about 20 bux per month. Embarq offers different Internet speeds for different monthly prices. *I have the 3MB service and it is just fine. *I have never seen Comcast in action but I've heard they have higher d/l speeds that 3MB. Cable is faster than consumer grade DSL If you are watching videos all day it is probably worth it. Unfortunately when you average the "zero bits per second" you get when Comcast is down in the equation DSL is faster, I call their offering the triple threat plan. At least 3 times a month you will be transported back to the 19th century. No TV, No phone, No internet. I guess you just curl up with a good book, remember those? Still read books. *Starting a Ted Bell novel later today. *Used to have cable, but everytime it rained or got foggy the cable went out. *Was one of the first cable systems in the country. *They replaced all the cables and supposedly is good and reliable now. *Just to costly for what I use.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - |
