Re: Sounds great!

This certainly could be good, especially if done correctly, and they do take care of deploying it carefully. They would have to consider the kinds of bandwidth stresses that may happen at maximum bandwidth saturation per home, and gauge accordingly; this overselling of bandwidth only leads to trouble.

I myself have been quite satisfied with my DSL provider, as I've had no real problems with them, except for mainly the USB modem that they had sent me initially. However, going with their PCI version really fixed a lot of that, as well as going with a new OS .

Being where I am, there's no way that OOL would probably come down here, but if they did, I would probably sign up, for they seem to be the singular example of providing really good cable-modem access to their customers, according to the many reviews about the ISP on here. Just wish that they could come down south! OOL - IMHO - would probably be the only cable-modem ISP that I would really consider favoring over my current DSL service.

However, if the city started to provide the i-net access for a good price, I might switch. but only if they take great care of making sure that the speed is there, and that the latency is low. I do too many things that require low latency for me to put up with anything getting dialup pings at ANY time of day.
