We've had AT&T since we moved into our house 3 years ago. No complaints so far.

Astound for prices. $20 for 300mb with equipment for 2 years.

AT&T if you want speed.

We've had time warner/spectrum for 18 years. No issues, no clue if it's the best or not.

Depends on what you're looking for. If you're not using it for anything more than watching TV and streaming, then most companies would be fine. But if you're doing video calls for work, or would like to be doing multiple things at once (watching something/online video games/Zoom calls…) I'd recommend something a little stronger.

Check if your address is available for AT&T fiber, it's a great service and super convenient, my parents have it and they love it, as soon as they install it for me area I'm gonna switch over

I live in Hewitt, and I have Astound, formerly Grande, 1GB. It works really well. I do a ton of video conferencing for work. My wife can be streaming TV and my son gaming all while I am on a video call. I had Spectrum years ago. I found the service to be expensive. It couldn't handle our demands and we had to reset the modem on a regular basis. They were the only show in town at that time.

I'd go with AT&T to combine discounts; however, it isn't offered yet in my subdivision.

We've been with Astound/Grande for since we built 24 years ago. I call then when they attempt to raise. I'm paying $63 for 600K. We have two gamers and we stream multiple devices with no issues.

AT&T fiber here. I had Astound before, but switched because of the speed. It's been very reliable, no issues. 1 gb down/up.

Thanks everyone. I had 1 Gig Google Fiber when I was in Arkansas and 500 MB in Mexico City for the last 3 years. Wife and I will work from home most days when we aren't traveling and have heavy zoom meetings. We are a family of 5 with teenagers so lots of streaming and WhatsApp video calls. Probably going with the 2 Gig ATT fiber package that they said was in my area and based on feedback here. The 5 Gig seems cool, but pricey and coming from the 500 MB to 2 Gig will already seem like lightning.

The 2 gig from AT&T sounds great. I called them to see what speeds I could get from them in Hewitt. I can get 5mb at my address. I had to double check that I heard megabytes, not gigabytes. I did do some other price checking, and I was able to get my bill lowered by around $50 bucks a month from my current provider.

AOL. Downloads in just minutes!

In fact, I think I still have a disk you can use sitting in my kitchen drawer.

I can hear the beautiful sound of a 14.4 modem connecting via a phone line. Brings back memories of using search engines like Lycos and AltaVista on my Netscape web browser.

Wait! The only way to dial- up is CompuServe.

We used CompuServe. Then my dad got cheap, and we went to NetZero.

The specturm speed is nice.. when it works.

I used to have slow but reliable ATT for about 10 years.

Now I have super fast unreliable spectrum for the past year. Contemplating changing because of reliability.

That was my experience as well.

Been on Astound(Grande) for years, for speed 1000. My wife demands the speed which Spectrum could no because of wire. We had 3 daughters, 3 grands(all teenagers), my wife and I 2-3 TVS AND 2-3 laptops running most of the time.
Costs $85-90 per month. We have at our store also. Recommend all the time.
