Call back again. You probably got a sour agent.

Comcast is nothing better, I never tried Starry but hear it’s slow and data caps.

Check out T-Mobile 5G. If it’s not available at you current address try using a friends address. It’s autopay so no real issues. $49.99, it is 2year contract tho

In a Town that services RCN and Comcast. My previous residence in same town, I choose RCN, I loved it. It was 1Gps and stayed that speed all the time, seldom went down (maybe twice a year, no more than 10min). I believe is was $29.99mo owned my own equipment.

Then moved to this new place that is almost spot across the street from RCN office yet my building is not wired for it. I had to take Comcast. They super stink. Payed $39.99 for 200mb and just dealt with it. The service would drop several times a month and I’d get text about 2hrs of disruption, only for it to last up to 2days. I canceled service with them in July but after a week of no home Wi-Fi, I and my partner agreed to put it back on. Only now same tier 200Mps $49.99. I figured if I’m going to spend that much, pay +$10 for the 600Mps. Guess what? It still stunk…..

Last month I had enough and called T-Mobile (I use mint mobile for phone and I know the signal here is great as they use the same towers) they did not offer the 5g home internet at my exact residence but I used an address of a friend next town over to get the stuff. I plugged it in by my window and just like that, 5G with a solid excellent connection. It delivers 200mps via Ethernet and 150mps on Wi-Fi, it handles 4K streams no issues. I will say the connection does slow down durning peak time thru the day, and the modem will get hot and get disconnected (once w eek so far). I solved a lot of this by putting the Modem up in a higher window, and connect to a stand alone router. Since then my connection is more solid (better ping too 26ms) and the modem doesn’t heat up as much I think due to lack of connected Wi-Fi devices.

I pay $49.99 for it. It’s not as good as the RCN I once had and loved, but I hate comcast and I’m willing to support this new 5G thing in hopes that it can get better and will provide better market choices for consumers. Also I got the car Wi-Fi thing, they tossed it in for free and only pay $10mo and now I can stream Spotify in my car without using my phone at all. I’m exited to go on a camping trip and take this equipment with me and see how it does.

I will say RCN is very good in this area. Call them if you have service or billing issues. They have great customer support. Comcast can go suck it. I’m giving T-mo a solid thumbs up for now. I know this is new stuff for them so I’m willing to take the bumps in the road.
