Frontier isn't 'better' than Suddenlink
Depending on where you live, the speeds and performance can be atrocious and hardly qualify as “broadband.” Most of this depends on your distance from the Central Office and/or the quality/age of your copper lines servicing your house. If these aren’t optimal, the limits for DSL speeds are not great. Then there is the oversaturation issue too. We went years being told a family member couldn’t sign up for Frontier because they were basically to capacity. Speed-wise, if you have 1-3 users in your household, then a Frontier DSL service will probably be OK for you. But the minute you try 2-way conferencing, photo/video uploading or similar, you will see the limitations. The most significant limitation? Upload speed. DSL just doesn’t do that well.
