I will check it out .

I thought the dish/direct internet was provided by the phone co and was DSL

[Mom MD]

nope. They have true satellite internet last I heard. Good luck! It feels good to dump comcast if you can find something comparable

Bert, I have Comcast but I did have Verizon DSL for years (no TV at all after they switched to digital). My DSL speed was 1.3 down, about 700 up. My telephone line was so bad that I could only hear certain people on the phone but Verizon didn't want to hear about that.

Switched to Comcast, 30 down, 6k up, phone line clear and television. Yes, it is costing me more (although for the first year it was cheaper) but it is reliable.

I looked into satellite but they have internet data caps that are way too low for me and don't have nearly the speed that comcast provides. Verizon never will wire our county for FIOS so Comcast is our only choice.
