Comment on FCC to propose a minimum 100mbps to qualify as broadband, with a future goal of 1gbps

  You guys have caps? Jfc, how do you pirate 3TB a month in pure spite of the hegemony of current year capitalism?

  I shouldn’t be too cocky though, I have a 40GB cap. On my phone. 😢

  Yeah states with Comcast caps you at 1.2TB unless you pay $50 for the unlimited plan, which I don’t think is even offered everywhere. They discount it to $30 if you use their modem.

    Mine is $30/mo for unlimited (on top of my plan cost) with my own modem.

    Luckily there’s a few FTTH companies that are almost done laying fiber in my area. I’m finally giving comcast the boot.

    How much do they charge you to use their modem?

      They recently changed the prices. It’s $30 extra with your own modem or free of you use theirs since they’ll also use it to supply others with free ‘hot spots’ and cellular service.

    I had to get a fucking business plan to not deal with this BS. Still never got half the speed I'm paying for. The only other option is $100 for DSL.

    It's $20 for unlimited here with Comcast, or the business plan which is actually less right now for some reason for the same speeds.

    AT&T is unlimited with their gigabit plans or faster. Maybe their 300mbps plan too (heck I guess I'm not sure they have any caps at the moment come to think of it).

      It does look like the prices changed recently. I have 2 houses currently with similar plans. My currently living in house is using the Xfinity modem and costs $25 /m but I guess that’s the modem and the unlimited so not too bad.

      My other house has my own network system and not using any Comcast hardware and that one is $30/m.

      The bad part for me was until recently they refused to give me unlimited (when it cost $50) and I wasn’t able to get it for a while. It just wouldn’t go through. I got my fair share of overage charges cause of it. I’m sure if I spent enough time bitching at support I could get something from it but I don’t have it in me to do that lol
