It's all we have here locally....? If you want decent broadband, that is. We tried to get DSL and essentially got endless runaround, though they did send us 2 modems, neither of which worked. XD
At least Time Warner actually turned on our internet, which is more than I can say for the DSL company. -_-; I can't use wireless internet service, because hello, we process people's credit cards on my computer, and no, I don't care how many firewalls you have, that isn't fully secure.
Also, with the exception of certain apartment complexes who have contracts with Grande, San Antonio is pretty much locked into the two choices of DSL from AT&T (Southwestern Bell) or cable internet from Time Warner. There are no other providers here in the middle of town.
