Spectrum Cable
January 10, 2023 I am not pleased with spectrum Internet services because they take advantage of the monopoly they have in several parts of the city where I live. They push unnecessary and unwanted promotions and then make it very difficult to cancel promotions. They allowed someone else to cancel my service a few days after I moved out of an apartment and into another apartment,and then when I called to establish service at my new apartment, they insisted that I had to open a new account with a higher price.

May 27, 2025 I have been very happy with Greenlight! We upgraded from Spectrum, so everything from the customer support and speeds has been leaps and bounds better. To start, the pricing is fair and was $50/month for a long time, however unfortunately they increased it to $55/month recently, which is my biggest complaint. Other than that, installation went smoothly, and the speeds we get exceed my expectations - We pay for 500 up and down, but end up getting more like 540! While the ~double the upload speed as well as the amazing low fiber latency has been great, the upload speeds have been absolutely amazing coming from 10mbps, and originally only 2mbps. Overall, I highly recommend Greenlight Networks if you live in an area in NY state where you can get them - My biggest annoyance with them was simply waiting for such a long time for their service to come to my neighborhood - we were waiting for many years. Also, I wish they showed more attention to detail in the installation process - Spectrum used a white cable to match our white siding, while Greenlight used a black one - just a nitpick, but my last concern with the amazing service they provide.
One last thing to mention is that it's also truly amazing having the option to pay more to upgrade to up to 8gbps - A speed I absolutely don't need for anything, but purely having the option at a reasonable price is just amazing!

Greenlight Networks Fiber
May 15, 2025 I have amazingly fast service with the fiber cables. Also it is very rare to have interruptions in service. This is very important because I work from home. I previously used Internet through the phone company and not only was it slow but we had frequent service interruptions. I am very happy now.
