Anyone else have a suggestion or have a price per month on their service? No FIOS is available and I have directv for television. ATT DSL is available. Anyone have it? How much is the premium internet with a phone line a month? Can you bundle it with a ATT Wireless bill? Also, can you get Road Runner without cable service through TW? ---

I just called. No phone service through Verizon and told them I don’t want to pay for a land line and never said I needed one. They said its only 44.95 a month with a 1 year contract, no setup, free equipment, and if i move out of the area where FIOS is not available my contract is canceled. They are coming out tomorrow morning. 10 Mbps down and 2 Mbps up is pretty sweet since I am coming from shitty 1.5 Mbps down and 256 Kbps up at my old place. Lol. I live off Union right by the 400 like 2 miles from SG now. ---

I live in West Seneca, there is no Fios where I live. The Verizon Dry Loop DSL is too slow for the price. We went with the regular time warner roadrunner. I just got notice in the mail that they want to swap my modem out for a new one so that they can burst the speed “powerboost” whatever that is. ---

When you say southtowns are you Hamburg/OP? If so I’d imagine ATT DSL is just using Verizon’s lines since I am fairly certain verizon is the local loop for this entire area. So going ATT wouldn’t matter much. If FIOS is not a option I’d say go Roadrunning 10/1 for 49.95 or 15/2 for 55 I beleive it is. The fastest DSL you can get I’d imagine is 7/768 most likely 5/768 ---

The fastest DSL you can get I’d imagine is 7/768 most likely 5/768 Sorry. I am in West seneca which to me is the south towns since I have only lived in the city or amherst area. I am getting FIOS. Its available and pretty sweet. Only 44.95 with no taxes or anything for 10/2. Time Warner said its not in their area on the website for some reason and ATT could provide DSL up to 3 Mbps for 29.99 a month but needed the agreement and a phone line which sucks. If I didnt want a phone line, they partnered with Yahoo on some WildBlue Sattelite internet which was crazy expensive and shitty bandwidth ontop of needing to buy the hardware. Hopefully FIOS works out. Looking at what my roommate setup with DirectTV becuase I would love to add TV to this for only 12.99 more a month. ---

Run away from satellite internet as fast as you can. It’s balls slow. Only time it’s a good idea is when your only other option is dial up. ---

Verizon came out Tuesday and installed the FiOS line. Working great then left to go to work. 4 hours later, I come home and its down. I have spent more time on the phone with support then the internet has been up all week.
