i live in southern CT and i currently use AT&T dsl. im so far from the signal box that i can only get the 256k speed and when i download stuff, i only get 20-40k speeds which is rediculous.

what other companies offer high speed cable service in this area? i had optimum online in the past but was $40+/month.

i only need cable internet, i already use AT&T for cell and land phone services.

You need to search what available to your area. The first answer may help. Where I live it funny, ½ mile one way they have DSL, ½ mile the other way they have DSL. I can not get DSL, and only one cable company. I can get Dial-Up which I do keep one service for a backup to my Cable. Also, Verizon and, I assume most Cell Phone Providers do offer me Wireless Internet. If, they have Inet. So, my options are limited for my area, but, I do have a few options.

I need to explain DSL. Phone companies were divided way back when. This gave the consumer the option to a different phone company. How this works? Well Ma Bell and AT&T and other big wigs have the phone lines. But, they offer this service to whoever want. Say I want to install a pay phone at a gas station. AT&T may own the lines, but, sell me service time. I may pay AT&T 5 cents a call for the use of their phone lines and make 25 cents per call for a profit of 20 cents per call. OK, now you see how this works (I hope), so, if AT&T can not provide me with service, no one can as AT&T have and own the phone lines. IF, AT&T provide me with crap service as you mention, then everyone else will most likely do the same as they using AT&T's phone line at a wholesale rate. Hope you understand what I try to explain.
