pitbull481 Posted July 9, 2005 CID Share Posted July 9, 2005 there is no such thing as best ISP. All ISP have some kind of trouble. In my are i either get Comcast or WOW (wide open west). Those are for cable services. I prefer Comcast which is the service i have. You could either have 4Mb/384kb ($43.00) or 6Mb/768kb ($53.00). For members only. Non-memebers $10.00 extra a month And with W.O.W. check prices here http://www1.wowway.com/wowPriceBundleI.asp DSL umm i dont like it so i dont know much about them. I'm located in Chicagoland Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
