I'd highly recommend going cable ... but if you can get good DSL, I hear bellsouth is pretty good.

*Can you get just internet service from the cable co? I was thinking would have to get tv cable and do not want that....

Thanks for the help...this is obviously not my area of expertise

I'm pretty sure you can get internet only packages. You'd have to check with the local provider but I'd wager they want your money bad enough to sell you internet only.

Although that line coming in usually has at the very least basic cable streaming through it anyway. Depends on the tech that installs it and whether or not he puts a blocker or signal grabber on during the installation.

Parts of Charleston are covered by Clear (it's wireless 4G internet). Might work if you want internet only with out Phone/TV.

My original question was what company is best for internet...if it is cable, give me your recommendation on specific cable company please...

I am not moving to Ch until next week and do not know what companies are prevalent in the area.
