Reply to comment by Aegisx5 in Frontier vs. Comcast by RandyPhylum

I wouldn't be here right now if GoNetSpeed was available here. I know I'm going with fiber, that's not really my quam. I'm mainly concerned with Frontier outages that I hear about. But are those more frequent with their outdated DSL infrastructure? Is their fiber network more reliable?

Address the root cause. Why are kids committing petty crimes like this? The answer is increased poverty and lack of opportunity in their communities. Housing and food insecurity. High crime and violence. If we want to stop this, then those are the issues we need to tackle in the cities.

The thing with Frontier is they have two separate services - Frontier DSL and Frontier Fiber. They bought the DSL rights from AT&T a decade or so ago, and it's terrible - mostly because the infrastructure is 100+ years old, and they aren't going to invest billions into replacing it. DSL in general is an inferior technology for high speed internet anyways.

Fiber on the other hand, is brand new. All the lines are run brand new, with direct fiber lines all the way to the street in front of your house. Plus it has a much higher bandwidth. Cable internet also works excellently (unless you care about high speed upload), so it really comes down to cost. There is also GoNetSpeed fiber optic available in some towns, depending where you live.

Ahahahahaha dude for someone who claims they are having such a lovely life in shithole FL, you’ve got the time to search my post history (not even my main account) to try to troll me?

1.5/5 troll.

You must really hate your life if you’re projecting like this.

Edit: checked your page and saw your pic… yeah man I doubt you’re ever from CT. You look like an inbred FL man. You’ve found your home!

Depends. Some states have reciprocating laws, some don't.

Frankly, I wouldn't pay for a speeding ticket from Indiana unless I knew I had to return in less than seven years.

I see no to go to Indiana ever again.

I live in FC in one of the old conservative towns-absolutely no one would care or say anything to you. People are very tolerant even though there are old fashioned views for some

Yea… it was an example. You first stated that CT has 6 month long winters. I corrected you, and you gave AN EXAMPLE of ONE YEAR where it was a long winter, when statistically, the majority are not like that. You’re moving goalposts to fit your argument.

Your Florida is 100% showing moron
