The old standby.

Another thing about Charter, I'm not sure if they are ever anyone's first choice now.

Can't get DSL where you life? "Awww, guess I have to get Charter."

Can't get U-verse? "Awww, guess I have to get Charter."

Can't put a satellite dish up where you are at? "Awww, guess I have to get Charter."

That is one good thing - Charter is available almost everywhere. But it's still bad that Charter isn't the first choice. People only get Charter when nothing else is available. Again, a business like that can't survive.

What does Charter offer that other companies don't? What, maybe some "on-demand" stuff with cable TV? Is that it? For most people, I bet that isn't even worth what they charge for the service.

Even having been through the hell that was being a Charter employee, I can honestly say that I would definitely take Charter internet over AT&T. I have AT&T DSL now and its is crap. Yes, they do offer a 6 meg tier but I'm lucky if I get 3 meg. I've called into what could loosely be described as support and they tell me tough crap. It's within their margin of "acceptable" speeds. I had Charter internet for years, free while I worked there and paid for it after that, and never got less than the speed I was supposed to. Usually I got more. Yes, it's a little more expensive but when you figure I'm paying 35-40 bucks for 3 meg (out of 6), it's not like AT&T is exactly a bargain...

If att was free like charter then it would be all good
Nothing beat free
I wouldn't mind having an extra isp to serve me for life
Since we are paying yes I agree we expect it to be competitive like 5/5 or 10/10 15/15 30mbit/30mbit
True broadband are symmetric
Faked are asymmetric aka 3/512k or 3000kbps,512kbps
