SSThunder Posted November 16, 2008 Report Share Posted November 16, 2008 I just moved in last month so Insight cable was all that was available. Now it looks like windstream is teaming up with dishnetwork to offer cable/internet packages. I had this at my apartment and the HD channels were real HD(1080p). Insight says they offer HD channels but my box shows 1080i resolution so I'm not too happy. I can tell the difference. What do you guys think about dishnetwork? I'm nt a fan of a little dish in my yard but if the service is good and the resolution is true HD, I'd go for it. Has the dishes got better? I don't want my cable to go out when it rains or snows. The internet service is DSL. I've got broadband cable internet right now. Which is better? I can't tell a difference with speed when accessing my work secure LAN/WAN.

Krambo Posted November 16, 2008 Report Share Posted November 16, 2008 Well not sure about your choices however, I have DirecTV and would NEVER go back to cable around here. I bundled my cell phones and wireless broadband Internet service through Verizon and couldn't be happier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yttaf Posted November 16, 2008 Report Share Posted November 16, 2008 I have dishnetwork & couldn't be happier! I don't have the HD programing yet, but am looking into it. We have lost our signal less than those with digital cable around here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hankg42 Posted November 17, 2008 Report Share Posted November 17, 2008 Well not sure about your choices however, I have DirecTV and would NEVER go back to cable around here. I bundled my cell phones and wireless broadband Internet service through Verizon and couldn't be happier. I have DirectTV as well, and am very satisfied. However, I'm waiting for Verizon Fios to come to my area, so I can have everything from one vendor. I still have Cablevision for Internet access.

[email protected] Posted November 17, 2008 Report Share Posted November 17, 2008 DISHNETWORK BLOWS! i had dishnetwork for about 2 yrs, then left.... every time they had to come out to fix "their shit" they charged me a "service charge", even though it was "their shit" i still had to pay for them to come out and fix it.... i am never in my life going to purchase dishnetwork. i had more than 8 outages when i had them and had to pay a fee 5 times, it got to a point where i said fu(k it, i'll wait it out, so that is what i did Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
