Well, first off you really have no choice. Just internet, $65 vs $80 is better but 900 up/ 900 down vs. 20 up/ 120 down is the real winner! Obscenely fast and cheaper. The company, to deal with, is worse than Spectrum ever was if that can be believed. They don't have a real 24hr service so talking to a real person on weekends and late nights is really interesting. I had TONS of issues with a simple install, no call no shows and rescheduling to ongoing problems with simple billing. BUT THE SPEED AND THE INCLUDED WIFI BASES (2 of them) ARE AMAZING!!!

I got it as soon as it was available in April in Bloomfield this year. I got the 1gig tier. Just dropped Xfinity . Downloads are fast

Install in Vernon 2.5 weeks ago. 4 days from contact to install, tech was excellent and on time, 500/500 for $40/mo working flawlessly. Bye bye comcast!

It's piecemeal, some neighborhoods get it, some don't. Even in Coventry not all neighborhoods have it (although mine does.) But in my industrial zone in Manchester we've got 30+ businesses in one location hostage to Cox.
