I'm forced to pay for Spectrum cable internet, and I'm not the only one.

    Safer? It’s like half the monthly price, has a ping/latency of around 50, and speeds over 250 mbps with almost no downtime. It’s just been a good option.

      in rural areas? in all rural areas??
      some people have suggested that verizon has more coverage in rural areas but less speed overall.
      there are a few exceptions for both providers.
