I bought a house in Wantage Township in Rural Sussex county NJ. I needed broadband because I work from home (and so does my wife).
Went through service electric because it was either them, DSL or satellite. DSL was painfully slow, and forget about satellite that wants to be broadband but is really not.
Got the 10mb package for $41.95/month.
The cable modem is a Toshiba. Nothing special. DHCP, no PPPoE.
Set up went smooth. The TV service was set up quickly as well, using two CableCARDs for my TiVo series 3.
The cable guys came, installed and when they left I was happy to be connected to the world again.
They handed me the paperwork, and I signed my life away. However, when I was looking at the fine print, they limit you to 40GB/month data transfer and charge you after that. I guess if I don't download a lot of stuff I won't end up with a big bill, but I generally feel uneasy about paying for "unlimited" service with a limit in the fine print. Oh well, I don't think I'll use 40GB/month anyway.
Also, no servers. Pretty standard among cable modem contracts, but I would at least like to have the option as I did with OOL Boost. Guess I'll have to co-locate my server, which is a better option anyway.
The service has been reliable so far, all of two weeks. No complaints at all.
