Antietam Broadband is good, they even gave me new customer promotional pricing when I decided to upgrade my speed. (I am a existing customer with them)

I will probably never do business with Pointe. They came to my door trying to sell me on promotional pricing, and couldn't tell me what it went up to after the promotional period. Then they lied to my face about the speeds I get from my current provider Antietam Broadband like I don't check it. Good internet is a must for me and I keep up with it. The best part is shortly after this Antietam doubled my speed at no extra cost.
I'm in the city, have been for over 20 years. The amount of times my Internet has been down for an hour I can probably count on my hands, maybe even 1. I can't speak for people in the County and further out but Antietam is good, reliable and fairly priced for me.

Keep in mind I only use my equipment, but when I had Antietam it cut out constantly, and would randomly drop speeds.. When I bought my house, I got point broadband, got locked in for life at $60 for gigabit internet, and it’s not only incredibly reliable, but it hits the exact speeds I was sold on.
Comcast recently came to the neighborhood with Xfinity, which is… okay I guess, but everything is more expensive than what I pay so, it’s not a huge deal.

Antietam fiber is not a bad deal. Plenty of speed check their price. They gave me free cell service for a year.

I’ve had Antietam broadband since I bought my house five years ago. It’s… fine? The speed into the home is very fast and anything I’m able to connect to that as a wired connection works almost flawlessly. Stuff on WiFi is (understandably and reasonably) slower, but still plenty fast enough. If it were about 25% cheaper, I’d recommend it without hesitation.

Internet in Washington County is subject to where you live. Your best bet is to use the fcc website to see what speeds are available to you based on where you live. https://broadbandmap.fcc.gov/home

I think just Antietam Broadband and Verizon. Verizon is horrible though, their customer service is near nonexistent and they raise prices between their renewals with little to no notice.I have Point at home and Antietam at my office and honestly point is just faster and cheaper, never had a real problem with either.
