Internet option help (Charlotte, Concord, Star: live, prices, FIOS)

[painehouse]

I just moved to Concord and was curious if anyone knew if Verizon internet was available here as their website does not work. Also I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for cheap internet service note I am not interested in phone or cable options. TIA

Its going to be a lot more expensive withou cable or phone. Stand alone internet prices are almost as much as a package, and the service is lousy. You get what you pay for. Only cheap way is to go wireless and find an unsecured network in your area, or live near Starbucks, Panera Bread, or a large hote chain..Good luck. By the way I had no trouble getting on the site..Maybe its the service you are using

Since you don't want cable/dsl based options you may want to check out Clearwire which is wireless broadband.

the greenstreak dsl from windstream is only $40 and you do not need a dedicated phone line.
