Too expensive at $64.95. In AT&T land the 6m/768k package is $34.95. I don't see that extra download worth an extra $30/month!
lol...heart of chicago, att can't provide more than 3 meg...
same price as your 6 mewg package.

sounds like embarq is on to something..but a bit expensive. ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Distance-19817358 Wed, 16 Jan 2008 23:44:05 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Distance-19815689 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Distance-19815689 Wed, 16 Jan 2008 19:28:32 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Distance-19815410 said by Syncognition:

Also, in most of Embarq's competitive markets, like central/northern florida and las vegas, the cable companies offer the 10Meg service for 64.99, with a $10 discount if you subscribe to digital cable service. I'd say Embarq has a highly competitive offer, considering the companies they are up against with these prices include Cox and Bright House Communications.
Isn't it Satellite? Dish Network to be exact.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Distance-19815410 Wed, 16 Jan 2008 18:45:55 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Distance-19814435 said by manhole:

I was just posting that as a comparison. For the price they are charging you are better off going with cable (if it is available to you).
Not necessarily. Here in Las Vegas, 10 Meg cable service would be $64.95 if I didn't want their TV package (which I wouldn't since I'm perfectly happy with my DirecTV).]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Distance-19814435 Wed, 16 Jan 2008 16:10:11 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Distance-19813528 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Distance-19813528 Wed, 16 Jan 2008 13:58:30 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Distance-19813467
Anyone who has Embarq DSL available and is not impressed with their cable internet owes it to themselves to give it a try. Nothing's perfect but it's the best choice where I am.

In most of NC, the cable product is Time Warner Road Runner. Their standard tier is $44.99 I believe and is 5Mbps/384Kbps. Their "Turbo" is 8Mbps/512Kbps and is $9.99 extra, so it's roughly $54/month.

An extra $10/month for 2Mbps down and almost 400Kbps up is a good deal if you're stuck in a Road Runner served area that hasn't upgraded speeds.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Distance-19813186 Wed, 16 Jan 2008 13:08:28 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Distance-19813145 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Distance-19813145 Wed, 16 Jan 2008 13:03:34 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Distance-19813141 said by Dogfather:

That's fine if you're in AT&T land.

I love these types of posts. "Embarq sucks 'cause on Venus I can get 50Mb for $5."
