Communigate is one of the best ISPs in the Newark / Heath area that I have found. I am much more satisfied with them since I have recently switched from Alltel. Communigate actually has working service, rather then Alltel. I don't think the 3 months that I had Alltel, I could check my mail on a regular basis without the DSL or the Mail services being down. Adelphia who is the local Cable Internet Service provider is full of nothing but horror stories, so I am surely not switching to cable. I have listed some test reports that I have done below of my service. No more 1500ms pings like I saw with Alltel's service! I have subscribed to Tier 1 which is 1536kbps Down / 288kbps Up, w/Dynamic IP for $60 /month. Alltel supplied the Cisco 677 router free with a 2-year line service contract; I think they switched to Efficient Routers for new customers since I have signed up for DSL...
