On the Internet side, take the deal and run for the hills and don't look back. Waxing a tad poetic there, but it's a fantastic deal for three years. However, on the video side, run far, far away from that; the only exception is if it's a bundled deal. In that case, take the receiver, keep it...

Correct, except that before unlimited, if one paid $10/month, one could share data. Then again, some of us figured out that simply enabling hot spot allowed any wifi device to similarly use data without paying extra. I'm all for capitalism, but I'm against greed -- which is what this is.

While it might burst some bubbles, do realize that every corporation that is in the media business is in it for the money, specifically profiting from it. Of course, they are smart people and realize that if they only offered Internet access as a stand-alone product, they would severely (but...

Here in Atlanta, we initially signed up via online chat, but I don't think it matters either way. I'd say to go for it, even though I'd never do Comcast video, only HSI. I really wish AT&T would get their IP game in gear with U-verse; everyone that I've talked to who has U-verse for Internet...

Sorry to see you go. All I can say is that when we had an Xfinity technician come out to run our line from the pedestal to the demarcation point at the house for HSI (High-Speed Internet), even he told us that we definitely needed to stick with DirecTV for video. He mentioned that Comcast does...

While I can't speak for U-verse service, per se, I can say that any concerns you have for high-definition resolution are really only for things like movies, which you're going to be more beholden to your Internet provider and/or content provider of choice than for the video aspects of U-verse...

Hi, all: Just noticed this morning via Speedtest.net that our normal 50Mb/10Mb link has been hitting 90+Mb/10Mb. We are in the eastern metro Atlanta area.

It seems to me that Comcast is getting ready to match Apple's alleged new AppleTV and associated streaming service. At this point, everyone is able to stream some semblance of their video content on their own wifi network. The point is that it requires contractual changes to go outside of wifi...

My first inclination is to take anything that CBS says -- they happen to be the content provider trying to get an agreement with AT&T nailed down -- with a very large grain of salt. Also, AT&T has spent a nice sum of money upgrading their IP infrastructure to handle U-verse, which would be a...

Is this for all areas? Is there a link for your source?

Word over at DSLReports.com is that regulators didn't like the way Comcast did not back off of Hulu management after Comcast bought NBCUniversal.

Be sure to reload the page for the link above. A tweet from Comcast's VP of Internet Services, Jason Livingood, says there'll be no caps on this service. I believe that would match Google Fiber's offering, but not AT&T's Gigapower.

If it works for you, it works for you! For us, we're pretty die-hard on DirecTV for video programming, but then again, they have been our default provider for more than a decade. I will say that Comcast HSI (the actual Internet service, per se) is still our only real and best option (1.5M DSL...

We're using the following: - Comcast Xfinity Blast 50Mbps Internet (on promo pricing) -- we love it - No home phone service; instead, via AT&T Wireless -- they've always treated us right - Video via DirecTV -- we love it More specifically, about two months ago, we upgraded to Genie HR44 along...

There was no such thing as not being able to cancel. There is such a thing as persistence, and apparently this CSR took it to heart that one should essentially browbeat the customer until such time as the customer relented. I guess the customer in this case really did want to move away from...

I guess I'm a little confused about all this. My family and I live on the eastern side of metro Atlanta where -- since the end of last year -- several AT&T reps with whom I've spoke (in person and on phone) had said that the company had lots of intentions to expand their U-verse drops all...

Being out of contract with DirecTV, I'm still waiting for either DirecTV to release their wireless Genie minis nationwide and/or actual evidence that Comcast video is better (or, at least, the same as) picture quality as DirecTV. Then again, the comments for the linked article suggest that...

Yes, 'tis true. Got a call late last week from local Comcast sales. Blast! Plus 50 Mbps with 50-channel basic cable with Streampix for $39.99 for 12 months, then $59.99 for months 13 - 24, then market rates beyond that. I jumped on it, given that our current 25 Mbps Blast! Internet only was at...
