Service Electric Cablevision Cable
August 19, 2025 Provider offers reasonable rates and we have had no issues with speed/throttling. There have only been a few instances of lost service that I can recall. Most resolve themselves quickly, in other cases relating to severe weather events, service was back up in 24 hours. I am a little concerned about the relative lack of cable service competition in our area, though. Note that our household only uses a base internet service plan as we do not own a television.

Astound Broadband Cable
December 25, 2024 I have used Astound Broadband for about 3 years and I am overall dissatisfied with the price, quality, and speed of the service. All of the support agents are outsourced and generally know very little about the service. I pay monthly for 600mbps down, but only regularly get around 45 down on a wired Ethernet connection. There is no feasible alternative in the area and I wish I could get fiber Internet instead.
