Okay, I can admit it, I know nothing about internet speeds and such. I have been just about to pull the plug on satellite and go with Roku or something but today I got an offer in the mail for Spectrum cable. It’s offering me tv, a DVR, and internet for $39.00 per month, for 2 years with no contract or early termination fee. The internet is 300mbps. That tells me nothing. Is that pretty fast?

It’s up to 300. Would they be able, or SHOULD they be able, to tell me a guaranteed speed? Also, how can I find out how fast my internet speed is I have now?

It’s probably 39 each. They’ll do that then jack it up. I have high speed with two boxes, one of which is Dvr, and pretty basic cable package and it’s 106 a month.
Honestly I think I’ve cut my cable box on twice in the past 3 months. I’m using watching Netflix or Amazon Prime. It’s a rip off but come football season the DvR will be nice.

Also, how can I find out how fast my internet speed is I have now? download Ookla Speedtest on your smart phone make sure youre on your homes wifi network and run it it will give you upload, download and ping speeds

I guess it's all relative. If I could get 50 Mbps, I would be in high cotton. I can only imagine what 300 Mbps would be like. Same here. I get 12 on a good day.

Just be glad you aren't stuck with Hughes Net as your only option. We finally dumped that worthless garbage. Currently have no interernet at the house, but then we didn't have it with Hughes Net either.

Spectrum = Charter
I'll share what I told the Charter customer retention supervisor when I canceled my service......." it doesn't matter how fast it is if it doesn't work at all."
"Why do you ask"?
