I have had Fidium for a couple years now and it has been good and far more affordable. Remember that Fidium is simply a big pipe. You have to get other services to pump content through it. I replaced Breezeline channel content with DirecTV streaming which has been great but there are lots of choices for content. I also got their VIOP phone service, dropping a land line, same number, saved $$$. Overall, with Fidium+VOIP and DirecTV I saved almost $2000 a year.

Notes:
If you get their 1 GB service you get the router for free (save $10/mo.)

I have had 2 bad routers replaced. No charge but annoying. Their routers are generally seen to be poor quality? When they work, they work great.

I do have a problem connecting my older wireless thermostat to the network. Not a big issue but I will need to get a newer version of the thermostat to be able to connect.

If power goes out, so does the fiber network - no internet, TV, phone. Once power comes back on, it can take the network a while to stabilize. You can connect but it may be slow.
