Yes I find the cable operators sometimes better to work with then the telcos. I was very happy to find two cable operators servicing the same metro. I wish this was the case on a larger scale.

That's pretty rare, though. In the US, unless you're in a very large metro area like NYC, you're almost always limited to one cable operator. Worth investigating, but I wouldn't get one's hopes up. Much more common is cable and telco competing, e.g., Comcast vs Verizon. At %WORK%, we have Comcast plus a local ISP using fixed position wireless. That's pretty nice; Comcast is cheap and fast but is, well, Comcast; ISP is more expensive, not as fast, but doesn't suck nearly as much, and doesn't go down when the wires on the poles do. -- Ben ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to [email protected] with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to [email protected] with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin
