We’re in OB and have Cox Preferred. Using the dslreports speed test server in LA I’m seeing 5.3 Mbps down and 2.3 up, with 43 mSec latency.
We’ve had very few reliability issues, and we even had service for 6 hours into that big power outage a few years ago. (Nerd that I am, I powered the router, switch, and wireless adapter off an inverter connected to a deep cycle battery.)
My main beef is the cost ($54.99/mo before taxes). One of the perennial items on my to-do list is to get our home number ported to a throwaway phone, wait 30 days, and then port it to Google voice so I can drop the landline and use an Obi box. We’ve already dropped cable. Once that’s done everything would be over IP and I’d theoretically be able to bounce back and forth between Cocks and AT&T every year and pay the prevailing teaser rate.
