This is a very nice perk. You don't see AT&T or Verizon offering free EVDO/HSPDA, nor WiFi. (And Starbucks doesn't count AT&T fanpeeps)

Melville, NY | Cablevision's 'service' isn't decent service anyway, so why would OOL WiFi be a nice 'perk'? |

Almost as high as FiOS, higher than Verizon DSL, AT&T, Comcast, and Road Runner.

| To some here, anything that isn't free and at least 100 mbps internet and all TV channels in HD is a ripoff. And no amount of additional perks will change their opinion. They want to live in a socialist nirvana that exists only in the writings of Sci-Fi writers and StarTrek fans.

OOL is fine, I've been very happy with it for 10 years. better than my corporate connection. |

How is 15/2 service with no caps. or $60 service 30/5(that allows web and email servers) not decent. Even fios does not allow you to unblock web and email ports.
Cablevision is prob in the top 5 behind fios and the small ftth companies.
Its prob one of if not the best cable company. |

Jamaica, NY | Yep. Its speeds are a shockingly fast compared to Comcast and TW. Don't compare CV speeds to Comcast PowerBoost speeds. |

Re: Very nice
I resent that comment. Socialism = Good! But either way, I agree - there are some who will be never satisfied.
Looks like a decent addon, like the WiFi that Bell offers here at my local Starbucks. The sad part is, while OOL > WiFi, Bell Starbucks Wifi > 1Mbps DSL. |
