GFiber
July 07, 2025 When my husband and I lived in Kansas City, we were very happy with Google Fiber. We had no issues and it worked great. We moved to Nashville a year ago, and still stuck with Google Fiber. It has been nothing but sluggish, laggy, things crash all the time, and uploads fail. We have tried to get help for it with no luck. We're pretty unhappy with the service now. We wonder if it could have something to do with the volume of people here in Nashville, but nonetheless, we are paying the same amount and should get the same service.

XFINITY Cable
January 22, 2025 I've had somewhat of a frustrating experience with my ISP, Xfinity, particular in terms of the user interface. I recently moved from an apartment to a house and the process of moving my service account from one address to the other was painstaking. I was met with errors at practically every step despite following all instructions. The Xfinity plans are all pretty expensive, so I was really disappointed that the process wasn't more streamlined.
