Re: [PLUG] Interesting Comcast Experience
|
No contract and no sign-up or cancellation fee...but this may only be if
you are already a Comcast cable customer so check on that first. I went
with Comcast for the fact that they had me online after a 15 minute
phone call. No matter what the phone techs say, you don't need the
install kit it's just dhcp. Tell them to transfer you to broadband tech
support and they can get you set up right away. I didn't have to
sign a contract. I really didn't want to deal with the whole DSL
installation thing. But I still get my TV through them so maybe that is
why it was pretty easy for me, YMMV.
You should be able to get a modem for $0 after mail-in rebate, just look
around...I think Circuit City or Best Buy advertised one on Sunday.

Comcast doesn't use a one-year contract?! If that's true and I can get
a free or low cost cable modem, I think I will sign up within the next
month. Although, if my life and location were more stable, I would
consider the Speakeasy shared DSL deal.
