Astound Broadband Cable
November 25, 2025 I feel that the speed is a great speed for what I am doing with the service. When I stream I notice that the speed is always consistent. There have never really been any drop outs of service so I am happy about that. I do wish the cost was a little less given what I am paying for the service but overall I am happy with the speed and service I that I am getting.

July 16, 2025 Spectrum some sort of arrangement with the town-home complex where I live. Even though there are other options in my area, like fiber from other companies, I'm stuck with 🤬Spectrum.

Spectrum Cable
February 18, 2024 I've used spectrum for a long time now, and like most others it's "okay". It could be a lot better as far as pricing versus speeds. Their customer service is horrible and most of their tech support is read out of a book. My son was in charge of an ISP and currently lives with us after he was deemed disabled. He hates spectrum but it's the most secure in our city at this time according to him. I just hate when we have issues and he isn't able to walk me through how to fix it because calling their tech support is like the blind leading the blind. We've tried others like grande communications and it was the least secure. My son was able to see and access other computers on our street after ten minutes using the same ISP. That scared me a lot so I decided never to use them again. I am sure now they are better but I'd still never use them for that reason.

June 21, 2023 The situation I'm in with Spectrum is unfortunately one of necessity (I can't convince my family to change providers), but I would really like to move to another provider such as Grande who offer Fiber in my area. We have used Spectrum for twenty years, but the experience has not been very good. With several-time-yearly technical mishaps and occasionally unhelpful techs, sometimes requiring multiple visits in order to diagnose the problem, I'm just not happy with the service, and the price makes it considerably worse. If I were to recommend Internet to anyone in the area, I'd beg them to choose Spectrum as a last resort, and ONLY as a last resort. The throttling on my connection does not help matters either.
