Just a FYI, you can get 10/1.5 with AT&T now. I don't know what its like where you are, but U-Verse beats everything that Charter has in my area. The best speed we can get here is 5Mbps and that is if your lucky...
I looked up Raymore, it appears to be a suburb to Kansas City. Where I live is a suburb to St. Louis.

So Charter doesn't deliver the speed they advertise over there? That's too bad. I've always gotten the speed advertised, and even a little more.

Granted, I was (and still am) on a very low speed business tier. I just put in an order for a 10/1 business tier. Hopefully I'll actually get 10/1, especially since business service is more expensive. At least with it I get static IP and CSRs that actually know something. For the price I'm paying I deserve at least 95% of the Kbps I'm supposed to get.

I'd consider U-Verse business, except:

- AT&T has done stuff I don't like.
- You currently can't get Static IP even with U-Verse Business.
- U-Verse isn't even available exactly where I live.

I was also talking about TV offerings. I could be wrong but I think that with Charter or with DirecTV you can get more HD channels.

FIOS I can see that.

U-Verse? U-Verse is a joke. Charter's current offerings beat U-Verse.

The only exception I might see to that is the extremely limited U-Verse FTTP deployments, but since AT&T has deliberately chosen not to even take advantage of their FTTP deployments I don't see that as a threat. Only 6/1 on FTTP? It's ridiculous, but it's that AT&T is doing.

It's also why I won't buy anything from AT&T, except landline of course.
