Is internet in Kansas really that bad? I'm paying $50/month for 30/21 (I'm paying for 25/25 but oh well) here in New Jersey [0]. I can't imagine doing much with that internet besides basic web browsing. Even low-res video is choppy at that speed.

- madengr 12y agoWell, I'm in Overland Park, KS (KC suburb) and paying $120/month for 30/5 + static IP + phone. My provider (CCI) wired my area 10 years ago with hybrid fiber-coax, but within the last 5 years have used all fiber for up to 200/200. They'll never run run all fiber in my area unless pushed. Both Google and AT&T are wiring Overland Park with 1000/1000, so that ought to put CCI and Time-Warner's underwear in a bind.
- mayneack 12y agoYes - My parents in mid-mo basically can't get anything faster than 5 down at any price. I know people who live outside city limits who can't even get that.
