We have xfinity as well. Seldom any issues here. I do know that when chatting with others from gulf coast they have the same problem. Not sure which service they use.

That is plain maddening!

Re:

You would think! I can understand one or two outages in roughly a month, but to have four tells me that something ain't right here. 

The biggest thing was when I could not get to someone on the phone. What happens if I didn't have a cell, or my cell couldn't run an app as large as that was one is? 

Thanks for stopping by!

That does stink. Cable companies are such a drag to deal with. One would think they would try to improve with all the streaming options these days.

Re: Good morning

I got just the Internet services. I think it costs me about $45 a month.

I have three Roku televisions for the three rooms we use the most - the living room, bedroom, and office. My 'added services' include Sling TV with ShoTime and Starz as added costs, YouTube TV, Netflix, Hulu, A&E Crime, Brit-Box, and Discovery Plus. The British humor and view on crime-fighting are totally different than what happens in America, and I love the British comedies, especially 'Mrs. Brown's Boys!'

With Sling, I can record up to 200 hours of programming at no cost. I can go places and come back and watch what I wanted to see, minus all of the ads. YouTube TV is the same way. I can record what I want to see and watch it when I have time.

My wife and I have different tastes in television sometimes, so I set both of our programs to record, and we can watch them at our leisure.

As they used to say back in the late 60s/early 70s, 'Whatever gets you through the night!'

Good morning

I have not really had issues with Xfinity going down, but I pay a monthly bill of $204.00. Our daughters got a Roku and free access to Netflix. The choices are better, and they are free.
