What company offers cheap high speed internet service?
Your telephone company can probably provide you with DSL service for less money. (But it’ll probably be lower speed, although it’ll be higher speed than the internet itself, so it won’t make much difference.) Call them and ask them, or watch the millions of ads they’re probably spamming your local TV stations with. The only providers it makes sense to use are those local to you. Otherwise you have one carrier providing internet service and another providing transport (the wires). When you have a problem they each point at the other, and you’re left with no service. If the same company provides both carriage and internet, the different divisions can point at each other all they like, but you’re dealing with a single company that’s not supplying you with service so (if they know what they’re doing) they get you back up quickly. That said, I find that it’s worth the extra money for cable. I’ve had one – count them, one – outage in 7 years. (And it was for only a few minutes.) Compare that
