This past Saturday VoIP was installed by Atlantic Broadband along with an upgrade to Digital Cable for the television. Internet is still 3/320. All services are consistently of high quality. The modem for VoIP and internet is Motorola SBV5220 Surfboard. Great diagnostics page.

Nothing new to report. Had a couple of outages but they were weather related. Customer service is fast, patient and usually knowledgeable. I'm still a satisfied user of Atlantic Broadband.

This service, internet~digital cable~VoIP, is just plain stable. It's a set and forget item. Absolutely nothing negative to report.

Effective 1 September 2008, Atlantic Broadband will be increasing speeds across the board in Pennsylvania at no extra charge. As follows:
Starter High Speed 320/320 to 512/512. Kbps of course.
Preferred High Speed 3/320 to 5/512. Me! 
Max High Speed 5/512 to 8/512.
Still very satisfied with Atlantic Broadband.
