I had a call with a Comcast sales/tech dude just yesterday. I really ripped into them. We pay $225/mo for coax 200/20 right now. They wanted more than $600/mo for fiber, didn't even say the speed, but I assume it was 1Gbps up/down. I have 10Gbps Sonic.net for $50/mo at home.

Mostly what I spent time ripping on him for was not being able to disable SecurityEdge (DNS hijacking) and outages (~7 multi-hour ones this year). His only answer was "if you want an SLA you need to get fiber" which is 100% BS.

The second there is an alternate (other than AT&T) I will jump to them. Too bad Sonic doesn't have fiber in my office area, but I hope they will at some point.

Comcast is my 2nd most hated company. First is AT&T.
