Zito Cable
June 12, 2026 When I signed up for Zito a dozen or so years ago, you couldn't buy stand alone Internet. You had to buy the TV/Internet package with the option of landline. Typical rural monopoly...we're the only game in town. I'm not some anti-TV crazy, except for a few things such as the World Series, there's just nothing on TV I want to watch. So I was paying an additional $150/mo. for something I didn't want or use. And the service was terrible. If cable went out on Friday, you might have it back on Tuesday. Of course you also lost your landline which is important in an area with limited cell phone coverage. And even the slightest power outage of a second or two knocked down your modem which may take a day to reboot. Now they have competition, I can buy internet as a stand alone service but switched to Starlink as my primary internet provider. I've had zero problems with Starlink and would drop Zito all together if it wasn't for my landline. With competition they are getting better but it shouldn't have taken that to care about their subscribers.

July 11, 2025 Kinetic is one of two providers in my town for fiber internet. They waived the installation fee when installing the boxes and running the cable from the main pole to my house. We have a one-gigabit speed and have only experienced one outage since getting it, which lasted less than a day. We have priced our rate for two years. We plan to keep them after the price increases due to their impressive speed, even when multiple people stream and play games simultaneously. The app enables me to manage my account, including billing and network settings.
