Just a quick reference.
|
|
|
|
|
|
These prices are monthly, unless otherwise noted.
|
|
|
|
Verizon Fiber (fios) home internet has three tiers.
|
|
$40, $60, $80 (gigabit).
|
|
|
|
This is internet only. They will not require purchase of phone or television.
|
|
|
|
There is a $15 charge for a router. You can provide your own and skip this.
|
|
|
|
There is a $100 one time service charge for setup.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Home requires that you have a 'home' (which means you have a kitchen and bathroom onsite).
|
|
I guess if you own a residential building, and have a downstairs shop, you can save dosh by using
|
|
home internet for everything. maybe.
|
|
|
|
You cannot get a static ip via home.
|
|
|
|
This is pricing for no contract, and month to month payments. Contracts aren't needed,
|
|
because these companies print money. Do they really need contracts? They are doing
|
|
ok.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Business:
|
|
|
|
business pricing:
|
|
$80 base level. (200down/100up)
|
|
|
|
Gigabit, I think $120
|
|
|
|
Again, $15 for router, monthly.
|
|
|
|
$50 one time setup fee, this time.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Static IPs: Packs of 1,5, and 13.
|
|
1 static ip == +$20
|
|
5 static ips == +$40
|
|
13 static ips == +$60
|
|
|
|
|
|
5 Static ips, and base level internet: $120
|
|
|
|
This is month to month pricing. No contract.
|
|
There is a discount if you agree to a two year contract. A contract almost
|
|
exclusively benefits the phone company. You get very little out of it, and
|
|
run the risk of cancellation fees.
|
|
|
|
Again, this is internet only. They do not require purchase of tv, or phone.
|
|
|
|
If you are a new customer, they may give you a $10 discount for a couple months.
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
On the other side: the local cable company: comcast, I can't quote exacts, but
|
|
I know the following:
|
|
Business Internet
|
|
35/35
|
|
w/5 Static IPs
|
|
$112
|
|
cable tv
|
|
$40 (I think this is right)
|
|
|
|
As you can see, the pricing is comparable for internet. Verizon would be $120,
|
|
for base level with internet. Slightly more money, but faster promised speeds.
