Internet was $60/month for 100mbps

and in reality it's more like 800/940

Turns out, people like to download more than upload, so even though you're sharing a 1.2gbps upload connection with multiple people, the upload speed is almost always faster than the download speed due to how people use the internet, far more download occurs than upload.

>he doesn't know that a 1gbps NIC maxes out at 945mbps anyway

How can you justify treating the internet as a utility when it depends entirely on another, completely separate utility (electricity)?
Like, getting your mail delivered to your house is a really popular service, but we don't go around calling it a utility.

Would it be worth it moving to Sweden just because of one ISP?

Well so if Comcast wants to call itself a utility, should it not cost exactly the same no matter where you are?

What utility does mail rely on? Roads aren't a utility.

Water, sewage, and telephones all require electricity at some point, yet they are considered utilities.

Also I have a UPS and I've had internet when power to the house is out, so they are separated a bit.

Dig up the wires, cut them down.
Begin a petition for fibre internet.

Well so in retrospect maybe it's not so strange to refer to it as a utility.
I guess I just wish people could agree on how to treat it and be done arguing.

So do you not have cable boxes?

I don't watch TV, or have a phone connected.

But 1gbps internet only costs $130/month

with TV and phone it's $75 for 2 years, and $85 the year after.

Seriously anymore who's has pic related as their ISP should automatically off themselves to getting such a fucking piece of shit ISP x

Have fun with your Data caps and shit customer service while I enjoy comfy Spectrum 100 mbps for $40 a month with no data caps

>Data caps
not in my area.
Comcast only has data caps for the fucked parts of the country. If you're in the north-east, you're fine.

Most people have no choice, retard.

And here I am paying 8eur for 100mbps and 120 channels lol...

This is outaded as hell, Comcast never bought TWC. Charter did. My state is Charter's bitch.

>being a homeless nigger stinking up the library
lmao nigger.

I was just wondering what you actually pay after the fees and everything. I'm around $160 with three boxes and one channel package up from the custom TV.

i'm paying under $100 even after taxes and fees.

They don't want to be a utility because then they can't charge you whatever they feel like.

THANKS BLUMPF

Yes.

Xfinity is like $75 for 1000mbps

Dis nigga definitely got ripped off. I've seen better FIOS deals before.

Comcast doesn't have data caps in areas where there is competition. It only data caps areas where it has a monopoly which is mostly mid west USA

Alabama here.

90$ for 1GiB fiber only internet. No caps.

lol poor idaho & new mexico
might as well kill themselves

yea
comcast & cox are around $100 / month for 1000mbps download and 20-50mbps upload
I have a house in Rogers, Arkansas. Denver, CO and Ashland, OR..
Cox in oregon & AR. and Comcast in CO
no issues with any of them honestly. upload kinda sucks ass if I ever want to upload a lot but w/e

Don't mind me, just hanging out in an independent municipality getting somewhere between 100mbps and gigabit (can't be sure, my router is kinda shit) fiber (maybe) for $300 up front and no monthly payments.

Seriously why the hell is liNKCity free, I don't understand it.

meanwhile I pay $40/month for 6mbps in my 3rd world shithole

$100/mo
10/2
You complain too much.

It's not as cheap but you can get 10gbit in Chattanooga, Tennessee.

>he doesn't know that 1gbps is actually designed for 1.25gbps to allow for overhead in the ethernet spec

>Comcast
Florida here, is that true? I thought it was Charter

I'm OP and have Cox too. I was considering an upgrade to gigablast awhile ago, but the 1tb data cap kills it.

there's a $50 charge for unlimited data (unfortunately) though
t. Cox customer

It really makes me wonder why they even bother offering gigablast to begin with. I can't see the purpose.

I pay $62 for gigabit fiber in america. My city built a network because we were sick of being cucked by Cox and ATT

>living in burgerland
Yeah you did. Now lie in it.

Currently pay $46 per month for 10/1 plan. That's with fees/tax included. Sad part is that the City Owned ISP is only game around. Even sadder part is that the same city also has it's own Cable Provider as well. Guess who has the monopoly on that business. Really sucky bit is that the ISP does offer higher plans up to a max of 100/10 but you'd pay $90 for it. Oh and they got bandwidth issues as well so good luck seeing 100 meg all the time.

Stop being a cuck and start your own ISP.

>Did I fuck up?
Yes, you need to bitch and make threats of switching ISPs. Frontier is the worst one. If all fails call again.
