Okay, last question inside

Posted by TWuG Dec 22 '09, 11:23

Using this address: 2609 Hastings Rd, Chatham IL 62629

What are my cable and internet options?

I know Comcast is available.
UVerse can't tell me if they are available because the don't like the address. I can't even get a phone number from their site to call and check availability.

DSL seems like a non-starter. My wife runs a voice-over business out of the house and MUST upload files every day.

BTW, that address is real, but is just a house I like that's for sale. We may end up elsewhere, but still in that general area.

So? Options?

- Checked. DirecTV, yes, internet no. -- nm - TWuG Dec 22, 11:35 4
  - btw, my choice of housing would be significantly impacted by broadband availability. If I knew that Uverse was in a certain part of town - oblique Dec 22, 11:36 3
    - you know, I said similar when I moved but ended up with crappy tv/internet and found I really don't mind. -- nm - decline Dec 22, 11:38
    - Sorry, schools for our daughter trump that. Chatham has the best schools in the area. -- nm - TWuG Dec 22, 11:37 1
      - Sure, but I know that even in our town, availability differs across it -- nm - oblique Dec 22, 11:38
check out here. You might be in an area that has wireless internet (which I believe kilbo used for awhile) -- (link) - decline Dec 22, 11:27 1

I would talk to a live person about UVerse. -- nm - David Dec 22, 11:24 7
- Uverse just became available in my area. Tell me, what's great about it? - pmb Dec 22, 11:28 4
  - fwiw, its usability is not as good as comcast or directv. - b. Dec 22, 11:33
  - Switch. -- nm - Let it Spawn, let it Spawn, let it Spawn! Dec 22, 11:32
  - the system is basically a 26mbs dsl line, they take your dsl order from that, and the rest goes to the 4 channel dvr - tRuMaN Dec 22, 11:30
  - I'm not the expert but my sister just raved about it at Thanksgiving dinner. -- nm - David Dec 22, 11:29
- Do you have an 800 number for them? I can't find one on the Uverse site. - TWuG Dec 22, 11:27 1
  - i found this number on the search by address page - tRuMaN Dec 22, 11:43

- You'll have to hold your launch for 6 to 9 months. -- nm - TWuG Dec 22, 11:29
