May 19, 2024 I live in a very rural area. As a result, the internet coverage I get can be spotty at times, especially in times of more severe weather. If I could afford it, I would try to look into alternative ISPs, but it's not worth it right now.

XFINITY Cable
April 23, 2024 Xfinity has been very reliable. This says a lot due to the fact that we live in a semi-rural area. Very rarely have we lost service through heavy snow storms and even power outages. The pricing is fair and making payments is easy.

November 26, 2023 I have a program called Internet Essentials for low income seniors and others and the cost per month for my internet is $9.95

Frontier DSL
June 29, 2023 I would say there is nothing special about Frontier but I would also say there's nothing bad about Frontier. The prices, while they could be better, are inoffensive. The speed is usually adequate, but I have experienced more outages than I'd have liked. It is always a bit frustrating to know that internet companies sequester the full ability of our internet for corporate greed, so I do not feel I will be completely happy unless I have speeds that rival South Korea.

AT&T DSL
May 29, 2023 Caveat being that our household qualifies for low-income internet service with AT&T, so the cost plays a role in satisfaction. However, compared to internet service at my friend's house (where I often visit) who has cable internet (from Spectrum) and pays significantly more for her service, I'm actually quite impressed with the AT&T DSL that we have in our own household. Our DSL is more reliable and just as fast.
