I keep Earthlink ADSL as a backup but Comcast is pretty decent here.
Not as fast as they advertise but way faster then even the fastest ADSL that I can get here and over at my neighbor's place up the street he can't even get ADSL so he has no choice but Comcast internet.
It costs way more then it should since I don't use Comcast for TV and instead use DirecTV but it did work out that I could get basic cable on one TV for just $1 more then internet alone so I have basic in my office in case the satellite goes out like in a bad storm.
Comcast did go out for over three weeks in the last hurricane but so did my electric and many people lost their phone lines too but I was lucky that my ADSL did keep on working. I became the WiFi hotspot in my neighborhood after the last hurricane.
At one time I had Bellsouth ADSL, that really sucked slimly donkey balls.
