    Hey guys,

    I'm looking to go with a new Internet provider but wanted to see if you guys/girls/Bfactor knew of any good deals. I currently live in Illinois (rolling meadows) and have comcast 12mbs speed (I think thays what it's called lol). The price is $60 a month without bundling it with anything. I refuse to have anything but direct tv so switching my tv is not an option. I tried dsl but the highest speed they offer is slower than ftps customer service. Do you know of any good deals out there? I mainly use the Internet for poker (max 10 tables), watching vids and live feeds of games, porn, and surfing. My fiance however is a graphic designer so she needs adequate download speeds (I've posted pics of her already so eff off and go search if u have too)

    I would post the appropriate thank you pics but I'm posting from my iPhone. So just go watch the Eva longoria clip on David letterman. Just make sure you mute it.

    Comcast blows. Try WOW or Clear Wireless.

    i had comcast in schaumburg, it always worked fine. does direcTV offer some sort of internet bundling? definitely dont get clear home its as inconsistent as you would expect an air card to be.

    I have AT&T U-verse and am extremely happy with it. 18 Mbps downstream speed (max-plus i think) always cause of the dedicated line with no sharing. Mine is bundled though so I have no idea what the price would be for internet alone. imo it's worth the money for reliability/speed. Another nice perk is there are no contracts, so no minimum 18 month or pay $200 bullshit if you move or whatever.

    Clear is great...very easy to install.

    Never go with AT&T... worse customer service then Wendy's.

    clear in GA has not been great. my favorite has been verizon fios (if available) and the bundle for 25mb/25mb is cheap, no contract...the prices are good for 12 or 24 months but you aren't bound to a contract for it.
