![]() While browsing on the Internet, the speed is more important to download the required information, with the fast internet connection you can browse it fast or else it will take a lot of time load. Also, you can browse a lot of information. It helps to share information from one system to another system. Internet is a worldwide connected network of millions of devices. Avoid CenturyLink 3/10 Mbps DSL.The short form of the internet is the ‘net’. Compare 40/80/120 CenturyLink to Cox for your specific household. TLDR -> Prioritize CenturyLink Gigabit if it's available (940 Mbps). This is severely old DSL technology and you want to stay away from it if at all possible. If you have 3/10 Mbps options, it's best to avoid CenturyLink. If CenturyLink is unreliable, head back to Cox. If Cox is unreliable in your area, you can try this out. This internet is similarly priced to Cox for those speeds so it's basically a wash. You're most likely somewhere in the La Vista/Millard area heading in weird directions (IIRC). If you have 20/40/80/140? Mbps options, this is on the OLD fiber network. There's literally no reason to not try this. They will literally run a new line directly into your house, install the outlet and hook up the modem (which you get for free). If you're paying 120-200 for Cox gigabit right now, you're throwing away every dollar you're paying over 60/month. They're currently running free installation and a free modem. If you have fiber speeds available (940 Mbps) with CenturyLink, you're one of the few lucky households and in 99 percent of cases, you want this service. If you're not lucky enough to be in a gigabit area, it's, at best, equivalent to Cox in speed and price.įirst Step. The Bad - Limited availability and at least three separate technologies in the Omaha area. ![]() The Good - Widely available gigabit internet.I don't have experience with either but it looks like you can get 50/month off with Centurylink which would put your total bill to 10 dollars for gigabit. Low income internet options are available for both.If one or the other is unreliable at your house, you might need to try the other if it's available. That said, if you're a heavy streamer and especially if you want 4k streaming, Cox is generally not the answer because you'll destroy those data caps. What people need varies widely and I've been a cord cutter for many years. I'm not covering 'newer' technologies such as 5g, Starlink, etc but can talk to those if you find a plan you're considering.If one fucks you over hard, you might be able to try the other. For the majority of customers, it's stable 'around' the speed they advertise. Both CenturyLink and Cox have similar outages and problems that vary wildly. ![]() You're anecdotally fucked either way for customer service or sometimes even blessed with good service. Both CenturyLink and Cox can have decent or abysmal customer service and it varies wildly on factors that aren't even worth discussing because they're random and completely out of our control.I've moved around quite a bit and have tried CenturyLink and Cox in all of their capacities. ![]() There's a lot of misinformation and anecdotal bitching so I'm going to consolidate a few things here so people can make good choices.
