Internet Service

It was time for me to update my Internet Service, because I've had the same DSL service for many years; and ISPs have made many new and enhanced features since I first signed up.  I decided against going with a cable company because I didn't want to pay extra for the cable TV service (at this time, at least).   For the same reason of not wanting to pay extra, I decided not to go with FiOS.   So, I opted for a relatively minor change.   I stayed with my current ISP; but, chose a new bundle plan that doubled my DSL speed and gave me new phone features.  After some chats and discussions and being told that the advertised free wireless router was for new customers only, one is supposedly being shipped to me now.  It remains to be seen whether I made the right decision in terms of wisdom and good stewardship; since, this locks me in for another year.   However, I think that this has lowered the cost from my existing service; added the upgraded speed, and should have include wireless.  I'll see how it goes and decide next year whether I would need to make another change.
