Spectrum Fiber
February 10, 2025 We haven't had Spectrum for very long, but we waited a long time for them (or someone) to get to our rural location. The service has been outstanding and the pricing is the same as we were paying for another service, but with much better speed. Overall, we are very happy.

Zito Cable
September 26, 2023 While Zito Media has improved, there is much room for improvement. The least expensive non promo package is over $60 per month. Add on $10 if you don't have a modem. Last year you could get a $30 package. True, they have doubled the speed, but many of us don't need it. Reliability has also improved, but my modem still resets daily and there are outages nearly every week. The phone support for internet problems is US based which is a plus and they seem to be very good. It does take them up to a week to get someone out to your house though. If you have a billing problem, expect to be routed to an Asian script reader. Just give me a computer to talk to.
Russell M.
Brightspeed DSL
September 25, 2023 I live in a rural area where the only options are either a legacy DSL, originally from CenturyLink, recently purchased by Brightspeed, or satellite. Satellite is much too expensive and limits the amount of bandwidth that can be used. Our DSL has no cap limit, but only allows up to 5mb down. None of the cell companies offer internet service in our area. Apparently, some time in the next 2 years, Spectrum will offer fiber through the Rural Digital Opportunity Fund. They have placed a node box directly across the road from our home, but there is no timetable for when they will actually connect.
