[Bruce]

Keep in mind, this is just the broadband service, TV increases probably coming soon-

Are you ready to pay more again? Spectrum has implemented a $10 monthly price increase on many of its internet service plans, with the higher rates now appearing on customer bills.

They've had us at $90 a month internet-only since this past February. 6 days ago, I received and email from them saying they upped our speed from 400 to 500 Mbps. Nothing about an increase in price, but they always sneak those in as often as possible.

I pay for AT&T internet air and get those speeds and only pay em 19.99 a month

Well they lost a so called 172,000 Internet Customers In the last 3 months. So the best thing to do is is raise the rates 10 bucks to make up for lost revenue. and piss more subs off and make them leave to

How do you like the ATT Air ?
I got some info about them recently, but didn't really look seriously, I don't think it's available here as of now.

I could probably do better than that but I'm not sure what I think of the Air type of internet yet ... I am in a Verizon area and they keep trying to get me, they told (Verizon) they would give it to me for $29 a month for 2 years, I think, then it goes to $59 .... which is what I pay for my current set up with another local ISP.

Last time I looked into the Air stuff, T Mobile was the only one availabe .. (now it appears Verizon is too)

Happy 'Spectrum Day' to me - the day when their new plans hit for Cox customers they've acquired. Moving over to a Spectrum plan is saving me $20 out of the gate, and could save me as much as $90/mo if I move 2 of my lines from Fi over, for the first year at least.

Now paying for $125/mo for 2GB synchronous fiber, unlimited data. Would be reduced to $105 if I moved 2 lines over. Those lines cost me $25/ea per month on Google Fi.

I started with 400mb Spectrum a few years ago at a vacation house and I believe it was $39/mo with some free cell phone account which I never used. Our last bill was just about $100 so I'll be switching to Starlink @ $55/mo for 100mb speed as soon as I can figure a way to disguise one of their flat panel antennas as part of a fake spark arrestor on a chimney that is not in use. Fios is starting to install in the same town but it will be along time before they get to my neighborhood.

Hah, site updated again. Now paying only $90 (some are as low as $80) for 2GB Fiber w/ unlimited data.

I switched from Spectrum to at&t Air about six months ago and have been very pleased. I do pay $60 per month, I never so any offer for less but Spectrum was $80.
Air has never gone out as Spectrum would be out at least once a week in my rural area. When I check the speed it is in the range of 400/35 but it does vary based on the time of day. The fluctuations have never affected performance.
I will add that I have tried several locations in my home for the router including that recommended by walking around using the app on the phone. I get 4 out of 4 green lights indicating signal strength sometimes but it usually goes down to 3 out of 4 soon. Again that does not seem to affect performance.

Do you have mobile lines with them also or just the internet air?? My store gave internet air for $ 19.99 a month.

I only have the Internet Air with AT&T. I have had the phone with Consumer Cellular (which uses AT&T towers) for many years and do not want to switch.
AT&T has run fiber lines down the main roads on both sides of my neighborhood but so far I see no signs that they are actually going to wire the trailer park.
