What's this?

There's one other option besides satellite and DSL...


...but only certain areas in town can get the second cable provider option.My basic cable/internet bundle had climbed to $130+ when I decided to cut the cord on cable. Internet only now and streaming service are $79.00/mo...plus when I unbundled I was able to upgrade my internet speed as well and still saving around $50/mo. Initial cost of antenna, modem/router and streaming device about $200 which I cover in 4 mo. of savings.

  I think we're paying $50 or so (Alexandria) for internet only w/Verizon. -- Hurley09 01/04/2019 12:33PM
  Might make sense. Slower speed plus modem for about $50. ** -- great2bahokie 01/04/2019 12:38PM
  I'm guessing the 39.99 deal is for slower speed than you currently have -- Tombo 01/04/2019 12:28PM
