I have had nothing but outages for the last three days and no explanation except to say due to severe weather, but when I look out my window there, the sun is shining and there isn’t even a hint of wind and then they tell you that they’re going to call you back or text you to let you know your service is back in order. They did not. I just kept checking and found out it was back on. Don’t go with Spectrum but you don’t have a lot of choices and old Columbia.

Pay for 1Gig service, but only get 200 Mbps. Once installed the signal is great, then hour later it drops off and company says is is your equipment. Streaming channels drop off, zoom calls lag or freeze, VOIP calls drop, downloads time out due to slow speed
