[Hidden-tech] GoNetSpeed vs Comcast / xfinity?

Wed Aug 2 15:13:15 UTC 2023

I live in Maine now, and we had been using TWC/Spectrum/Charter for internet and tv. We switched internet a few months ago and have been very happy with GoNetSpeed, both in terms of reliability and price. In our case, the comparison was:

Spectrum: 79.99/mo - 300Mbps down - 15Mbps up
GoNetSpeed: 79.99/mo - 1000Mbps down - 1000Mbps up

The price above is their normal price. GoNetSpeed gave us a $10/mo discount for the first year, so it’s $69.99 for 3x download speeds.

Their announcement from December <https://www.gonetspeed.com/about/news/gonetspeed-announces-expansion-of-gigabit-fiber-to-the-home-network-in-amherst-massachusetts/> doesn't specify how extensive their network will be beyond that or how long it will take.
