I am so, so excited that I will be able to leave Comcast for good in November. Sonic, a local ISP, has been blitz building out fiber in the East Bay Area. Comcast is abusive of their monopoly status in areas and their demise cannot come quickly enough.
- csisvunit 9y agothe gigabit fiber? whats the speed? i entered my neighborhood and it only says up to 30 mbs is available. desperate to ditch comcast.
- mmanfrin 9y agoGigabit is gigabit; they have had copper ADSL for a while and that caps at around 30mbps, but they're building gigabit all over the east bay right now.
- FullyFunctional 9y agoI switched from Comcast (@ 300 Mb/s) to Sonic (@ 30 Mb/s) just to support them. I really wish Sonic well as they seem to be the last honest ISP left.
- ProfessorLayton 9y agoI also have Sonic in the East Bay, and it has been pricy and disappointing. It is rebranded AT&T FTTN, I'm subscribed to 50mbps but am lucky to get 24mbps @90/mo after associated fees. Still, its that or non-rebranded AT&T or Comcast with data caps.
- ngokevin 8y agoGetting 1000mbps up/down on Sonic for half the price in Richmond District in SF. Good service, no complaints.
- pmoriarty 9y agoThis is what I'm doing. Sonic's service should be starting to be installed in May in my area. The price for Sonic's gigabit service is going to be the same for me as what I'm paying for Comcast right now. It's great to finally see some competition in this field and have the opportunity to ditch Comcast.
