Default Internet Speed / TV Package, what u got?

Currently have the minimum package for internet only from AT&T and Directv package, got whatever was cheap when first moved out now looking for something much better.

Was looking at the Charter packages and canceling both. What do you have, pay, and are you happy with it?

I always just look to see who has the fastest internet in my area and then see prices. Comcast could only get me 4mbs and AT&T has me at 18mb/s for the same price.

I use Comcast.

Get about 40mb download speed, ~10-15 upload speed. This is with three people who are either on their computers 24/7, or streaming something on the TV.

I have one HD DVR box and have the full line-up of HD channels aside from showtime, HBO, extra sports, etc.

Bill is $105, and Comcast has been really great for the few times that I have moved or had minor service problems in the past three years. Plus I am a big fan of OnDemand.

Comcast, the Deluxe Everything package for TV. The wife demanded it. I would just as soon get digital OTA channels with the perfectly good 30 foot aerial antenna on the house, but I gotta make Mama happy.

Net connection is ~70mbps down and ~12 up. I think we pay somewhere around $125 a month. I had to do some serious haggling to get that rate, though. Your results may vary.

Also, if you have Charter or Comcast, do yourself a favor. Build a halfway decent Windows 7 computer, put a large drive in it, hook it up to your TV and get one of these: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16815345006
