Internet Options

i have earthlink and have had it for years, and i love them. their customer service is great, etc., but here (i am on 17th st.) you can only get earthlink through time warner, so it is not very different from their service (or from roadrunner, i think) in terms of speed/quality, and i make my monthly payment to TW, even though earthlink is the isp. whatever. i don't have cable tv, either. when i was at bedford and sterling, i couldn't get earthlink because the only internet provider in that neighborhood was cablevision (who can't provide earthlink in nyc), and they were monsters. once they had my phone number they called me, like, nine or ten times a day every day trying to get me to sign on for other services. i blocked their number, and they started calling from a different one. their internet was fine, but i'd never deal with them again if i could help it (just saying).

We have ours through Verizon. I have no idea how it compares in cost but it is reliable. We haven't had a problem at all.

cablevision is fine until you have some kind of problem, and then they'll literally never fix it no matter how hard you try. not enough options, sadly : (
