PacBell
$30
I give 'em a 9
Beats the hell out of Verizion. At least my service stays up in the rain. On the East coast everytime it rained my service would go out. When I moved out west I did'nt even consider them.

Comcast
$45 USD

My only other option is Verizon, they are cheaper but slower. Now if FIOS shows up I will switch to Verizon in a heartbeat.

Comcast
$0 (paid by other household members, $40 I think)
9 (I work nights mostly and they do all thier upgrades late night so sometimes I lose connection, but I guess that is when it effects the least amount of people.)
No other high speed options in my neighbor hood.

Comcast
about $60/mo
About a 2
Only othere option for me is dialup, so there's really no comparison.

Time Warner/Road Runner
$45

Faster than SBC DSL and I have no use for a landline phone

Comcast Professional Cable
I pay $75/mo. But I have the 6MBit service. I used to have two 6MBit modems, and pay $120/Mo. But I got rid of the dual-wan router, and to tell the truth I really don't see much of a difference, except when my FreeBSD systems are CVSing.

I give it a 6. I used to have Dual ISDN, that was too much $$ and was slower than cable. DSL sucks, will never use it. Dialup is too slow. My work reimburses me for my home internet because I use it to work from home when there is bad weather, or I just don't feel like coming into the office. So really I don't pay for the service and I don't look a gift horse in the mouth.

However I do have to say, without a doubt. Comcast is fast as hell. I was downloading the latest build of Gentoo linux iso's at about 700-800Kbit/s. I remember waiting DAYS to download an ISO. Now I go get coffee and its freaking DONE! I LOVE IT. I love bandwidth, its so choice, if you have the means I highly reccomend picking some up.

Cox Cable.
$40???? per month (roommate pays it)
10
Wicked fast, I usually get more than 1mb/sec on any respectable download server. Close to 6mb/sec from gamespy. Even though my ip address CAN change, it hasn't in the 8 months since I got it. And they have like zero downtime.

Comcast Cable
$40

Verizon is too slow and we have basic cable with comcast so the internet gets a discount

What's a landline phone? I haven't had one of those for close to six years.

For the record I'm on Comcast like many others --same price etc. Rating? can't say. I have no comparison. But I'm happy with the service and tech support, although I usually solve my connection problems before they do. Overall, if I had to choose maybe a 7.

Qwest DSL
$30
Rating - 9

looking in to a Qwest T1
Price - $150
Rating - 10

time warner
50$
fast as hell...ish so 7

Getting a T1, man you got money to waste.

XDUDE always talks as if he has money to flush down the toilet. I'm not saying he doesn't, but it sure does look suspicious.

Yea I have noticed that too.
