wild how different the prices are, but I guess that's what happens when a lot of buildings only have one or two providers. No fios available for me, but I'm paying $70/month for optimum "up to 300 download, up to 35 upload". Usually on speedtests I'm usually getting 15%-20% lower than that.
Yeah makes sense. I never paid more than $35/40 but I always lived in the city with at least a few other options (FIOS and RCN) in addition to Time Warner. BTW was using RCN the last few years and they were very good.
Now we're moving to Long Island and the town has only two choices - optimum and FiOS. When I looked at the Optimum statement, there was a ton of "discounts" for being in a high-competition area which is how they got the price down to ~35 as well, from the base of about $70 as you said. Though we later changed our minds and went for Fios at about $39.
