Reply to comment by IStealWaffles in Huge problem with Spectrum customer service. by RealMainer

In what way? I switched to them in two locations and it’s fine, but the small business install process was a complete shit show, with billing “errors” and reinstalls that wasted my time, and the home setup used the wrong Wi-Fi boosters that somehow constantly reset my tv apps which was annoying until I got the boosters replaced. Even with that hassle, I am delighted to be paying half of what I was paying and getting my internet needs met without giving Spectrum another cent, hopefully ever again in my life.

Consolidated in eastern Washington county is almost unusable in many areas. The fastest speed we can get is 7 Mbps down, 1 Mbps up. Network reliability is also horrible, with frequent outages.

That’s too bad. What’s your alternative then, starlink?

Starlink or 4G LTE (we don't have 5G here). There's also traditional satellite Internet, but ew

A fiber company (Pioneer Broadband) is deploying a fiber network here, but that's still a work in progress.
