[Noisebridge-discuss] Broadband in SF: Comcast or Sonic?

[jim]

   Sonic is smaller, more home grown. Comcast is big, big, 
with policies to match: the bigger they are, the tighter 
the policies. Myself, I wouldn't get Comcast under any 
conditions. 
   Sonic offers static IP addresses that are clear of port 
restrictions (e.g. the worst case, restricting port 25, 
the email port). 
   If I were looking, I'd hope to be able to use Monkey 
Brains

   I believe access to their service is not city-wide. 
   Currently I'm using Speakeasy (about $60 per month 
for static IP, no port constraints, good service).
