Frontier DSL
July 19, 2025 In Oberlin, OH you have very little choice of provider. The town offers a Co-op version and Frontier offers service. When we got frontier, we were worried we would just have "to deal with it" since there were no other options. However, we have been really pleased that people come in and help whenever there is a problem. We have increased our speeds as the needs of our house change, and we have had great customer service throughout. They were so helpful and understanding during Covid shutdoowns. I am pleased that they were the option in our location.

Spectrum Cable
July 09, 2025 I am satisfied with Spectrum as my internet provider. The price is a little high for what I get but I don't have many issues with it and the speed is pretty good. In my house, we have a lot running on the wifi and we really haven't had any issues with buffering or down times with Spectrum.
