[Tfug] Tucson Business ISP

[keith smith]

I use Cox and work from home.  My service has gone down twice this year without notice.  Once for about 4 hours and another time for about 45 minutes.

I do not have a dedicated IP and am on a standard consumer plan which I think cost me about $50 a month since I do not have a TV.  I started using them for phone about a year and a half ago and have no complaints.

I live on the far East side.

Hi All,

I'm thinking of ditching Cox for my home office internet. Downtime issues as well as them not upgrading the upstream speeds along with their recent downstream increase makes me want to look elsewhere. Right now, for 384Kb up / 2Mb down with a static IP, I'm paying $59. Simplybits, like Cox doesn't publish its rate structure anywhere I nor Goggle can see.

I'd like to hear some recommendations about other ISPs locally and anecdotes about Cox and Simplybits from you all. 

Thanks a bunch,
- Mike Gatto
