Anyone here have experience with Fios versus regular cable?
I just learned Fios is available in my area, and I'm wondering if their claims that their internet is eleventy billion times faster than cable is really true...
That, and Comcast has ****ed me off for the last time.
I have had both FIOS is a better product overall. They have a new interface and I like them because they are not Comcast. I do play each other off to get a better deal, but won't leave FIOS. They do have a free HBO promotion for a year going on right now for existing subs. You should just switch to take advantage of the deals, gift cards etc. YOu have 30 days to switch back.
What I do like is the internet speed is just for you and not shared. My buddy works for a large company and tells me it's all a lie regarding speeds. Comcast has different heads on the cable that deliver internet to your home.
What is bush league is the amount of money spent by Comcast to block FIOS from going statewide. At some point CordCutting has to hurt Comcast, but they still have a monopoly on high speed internet in alot of towns. Verizon has lame DSL overall, we need competition.
