All -
I have been a Comcast customer for 12 years (when it was originally Adelphia in my area).
For all the reasons that make sense to me - I am switching from Comcast to Verizon FIOS for TV and Internet. I plan to keep my telephone service with Vonage.
They provide a wireless router ... and according to the web site a D-Link or an Actiontec. Does anyone know what they are using in the Philadelphia area (specifically Bryn Mawr)? Can you specify? I am leaning towards D-Link ... does anyone know if one is any better than the other?
Does anyone have any "heads up" or words of wisdom? I have heard of installation horror stories - but anyone I know that did the switch said it was painless.
I have my own domain(s) ... and I have several email accounts that I have forwarded to my Comcast email accounts ... so setting new Verizon email accounts and changing the forwarding from Comcast to Verizon email accounts is simple enough (via Go Daddy). Same should be true for the personal web pages. Just set them up on Verizon and change the URL forwarding (via Go Daddy).
Does anyone have any words of wisdom? Things to watch out for during installation? any lessons learned / hindsight to share?
Thx
