Ask HN: Cutting the cord, what's the best Internet only option in SF?
5 comments
I'm okay with going with regular telco, just wondering what the best options are if it's internet only. Probably a good time to try out the new chrome gadget.
Comcast business unfortunately is the most universal non crappy data option. Comcast is shit for support and policies, and performance varies, and they are evil, but their business product is marginally better. Webpass rocks if you are in one of their buildings. Sonic.net has an annex b two line bonded DSL product which is also proper IFF you are near enough one of their COs. sonic has the best policies/management, by far. If you live near a CO you can get 30/6 fusion. I have a deprecated YC deal for $55-80/mo 27/12 Comcast business; if I lived near a sonic co I'd go with them instead.
I've been trying to find the answer to this too. I currently have AT&T DSL in the west portal/parkside district of SF and I can't get more then 4mbs connection. All their higher u-serve service isn't up to date in my area. Slow internet sucks =(
For pure wireless, enh.
