I'm in an area where those are my only two options for high speed internet. Judging by the promo packages, I can get 100 mbps via the two providers for 49.99/month.
From what I can tell, Comcast is the overwhelming favorite for internet on the Houston board, but I was wondering if anybody had experience with Consolidated's fiber network. I've seen bad review regarding their general DSL.
Unfortunately, since I currently have DirectTv utilizing the "home run" coax cabling from the exterior of my house to my home network box inside, I'd need to either remove the DirectTV to install Comcast or hire an electrician to run another coax from the exterior of my house.
I've flirted with the idea of cutting the cord to cable since I primary only watch ESPN and the local channels on the weekend, especially with the introduction of sling.com, and this might help justify it if Consolidated is seen as a terrible provider. I just cant find much on them locally.
TIA
