Good "Better then Comcast for internet Speeds" Bad "Not too many features with regards to Cable TV options. They charge a HUGE premium for additional DVR's or Cable boxes." Overall "I am happy to have switched back to them since I moved. "

I am re-writing my review since the original one is over 6 years old and I live in Aventura, FL now instead of Miami Beach, FL
I moved here on July of 2013 coming from Comcast/Xfinity Cable Internet which I have always paid the extra for the business class vs residential.
As far as services for your Cable TV, Comcast has a lot of excellent features like the ability to delete/add programs to your DVR over the internet and also using iPad or iPhone you can stream programs to the smartphones and tablets. But since this is the internet provider review I will say I have been very impressed by Atlantic Broadband. I am on the 70Mb down/5Mb up plan. My condo pays for the 30Mb down and for an additional $20 or $30 I opted for the 70 Mb plan. Wow what a difference from Comcast. Comcast has this marketing term called Turbo Boost that boosts your speed for the first useless 500Mb that you download and then they throttle it down. My understanding from Comcast business is that they didn't do that for Business Class customers and I am realizing now that I have Atlantic Broadband that they definitely do some sort of throttling. My downloads are smooooooth and fast. I was never getting these results with Comcast and I was paying about $110/month.
Sorry Comcast, I loved you guys but Atlantic Broadband has you beat in terms of RAW internet speeds.
I could have chosen to go with Comcast's 100Mb down but that was going to be approximately $189/month if I recall.
So if I were to chose between Comcast, Atlantic Broadband, and DSL I would definitely go Atlantic Broadband.
