My HOA changing The TV supplier contract to AT&T from Comcast. This is in South Florida.
Based on two considerations I would probably want to keep Comcast for the Internet. At the moment I use cells for the phone.
1-The relative speeds of the Internet.Comcast is faster by far and the cost appears in the same ballpark for the faster comcast speeds. In fact AT&T top speed in the advertising brochure they sent around is only 24 Mbps for $54.00 to 3 Mbps for $31.00.
2- Comcast does not require a yearly contract as AT&T does. As I am a snow avoider (snow bird) I have in the past just stopped comcast and in one case even started it for a quick 2 week summer trip to the place. No problem as I use my own modem and router.
My questions are
1- Has anyone else gone thru this and how was your experience.
2-How much does comcast charge extra for Internet alone.
3- Does the new provider (in my case AT&T) use the same wiring and therefor screw it all up.
4- What do I need to do to see that it all works as planned.
Also posted on Comcast forum,
Thanks in advance,
