[WLUG] ISP question - ATT or Comcast near EMU

[Henry Parks]

Even though you didn't ask about voice I have a suggestion, Ooma $4 a month
nationwide unlimited calling tell them Henry referred you. It works of your
Internet connection I've had on Comcast for over a year now. Works
fantastic. http://www.ooma.com/

IN terms of overall customer satisfaction, they both suck.  I've been told
Comcast's TV service is a little better than U-verse in terms of picture
quality.

Comcast officially bans you from running "servers" on residential
connections.  HOwever, they don't block (at least most) inbound
connections, and my DHCP IP address is typically the same for many months
at a time.

Warning if you want to get comcast for voice.  There is no way to purchase
your own voice gateway/modem - you have to rent theirs for something like
$9/mo.  If you just get data you can buy any modem off of their
compatibility list.  I'd go docsis3 if i were buying now, you won't get
full speed if you don't.

I'd suggest asking neighbors what they have, and if it works well.  comcast
tends to be good in some neighborhoods and not as good in others.
