Be is quite happy with RCN. She is not at all happy with Comcast, because in the process of hooking her landlord up, Comcast cut her RCN phone and Internet connections:

Comcast vs. Comcast
When my wife lived in Chicago, her Comcast internet got cut off while I was visiting (and trying to work remotely from her apartment). Two days later and they figured out that some other Comcast contractor had cut her line to install service for her next door neighbor.
Back in Waltham now and we're using Verizon FIOS.
Cut the connection? Verizon takes it one step further.
Just so you know, it's standard operating procedure for Verizon to rip out your entire copper line to the phone network when putting in FIOS, and they will not reinstall it.
If you get rid of FIOS, you can still get a landline however.
Through Verizon - as they're not usually required to lease the line to anyone else.
Funny how that works.

It also happened a number of times in our building. In fact, before I call RCN I call our superintendent to find out if Comcast has been in the building.
I'd love to see someone look into this and find out just how common it is.
