I have ATT (Yahoo) DSL and it's OK but a few days ago, their modem died. I went to an ATT store Friday and they want $50 for a replacement. Plain vanilla Motorola modem - no router/wifi/etc. That's not happening. It 's made in China and probably cost less than $5 to manufacture. I might pay $10-15 but not $50.
I'm month-to-month so I'm looking at my options. Comcast is advertising 12Mbps for $19.99/month with no contract. That's faster and cheaper than my DSL. They also have a "self install" package so that's a plus! The price goes up after the introductory 6 months but I'm free to switch because there's no contract.
I want to find a new ISP before the end of the week. Any other broadband providers in Houston I should consider? Camp out at coffee shops?
