Best broadband ISP in NYC (Brooklyn)?
I’m getting down to brass tacks on my move to Brooklyn (just ordered the gas and electric hookup this morning) and I’m ready to set up my broadband account. For the past several years, I have been a happy customer of Speakeasy’s OneLink Select Plus service. It’s more expensive than the Comcasts and Time Warners of the world, but I’ve never had a single problem in four years as a customer, which is remarkable. Here’s what I get:
- 6mbps down / 768 kbps up
- 4 static IPs
- great customer service (very rarely used, but when I call, the person on the other end of the line is smart and empowered)
So, I could re-up with Speakeasy in NY (which I’m leaning towards, but don’t know if their quality is better/worse out there), or I could consider other options. The high-speed Verizon FiOS and AT&T U-Verse services are not available in my area. Any thoughts?

Hey Chad,
I worked for both Time Warner and Comcast..the big thing beween the two was money. Comcast was a cheap skate when it came to replacing lines. We had tons of upset customers daily because of equipment going down over and over again. They sold out to Time Warner and immediately TWC began to spend millions in new equipment in the ground. They turned the Dallas market around within a couple of years. If you ever have to go with somebody else, go with TWC. I hated working for them but they do provide the best product and are smart business people.
