Post Internet Service Provider
Any recommendations for an ISP for home office use?

I currently use comcast and I don't care for their service, they are always repairing something nearby and therefor I have no service during these outages.

I dropped Comcast for RCN. Similar pricing/offers but their service has always been way better for me. I have only internet I thiiiink at 20mbs, no cable, and I'm happy with it for games/movies/internet dorkage.

i went with clear... i can't complain, they've been pretty good. nasty weather sometimes affects signal quality, and roscoe village
is just kind of bad for wireless in general, cell reception included (though it's gotten noticeably better lately).

We switched from Comcast to AT&T uverse. I don't know how it compares to the other providers, but we get many more tv channels and just as fast of an Internet connection for a cheaper rate and less "outages."

I would say shop around and also talk to people in your neighborhood to see what they use as well.
