Here is some detail from my first invoice. I have X2 and it is a true 50Mbit service where I am, approximately 1200' from the fiber node. I get about 5.5Mbit up, BTW.
As you can see, it is $60 for Data and Voice, 9.50 for the mandatory modem rental, 6.50 for the ATA rental and pennies here and there for various inescapable and annoying fees.
Most importantly, there are no data caps, no threat (i.e. temporarily suspended) of data caps and the service has been pretty rock solid since it was provisioned.
For inside wiring I ran my own cat-6 from MPOE to the location in the house where the modem is located. The installer took care of everything else from there. The modem has 4x1Gbit ports, I believe. I used those ports to connect my internal wired TCP/IP connections.
I couldn't be happier with this service and with Sonic. I do not work for them, I do not have any financial interest in Sonic and I was not paid for this testimonial, just in case it sounds suspicious. Trust me, you will not get a better deal out of Comcast or ATT, all things considered, especially the data caps, suspended or otherwise and the alleged traffic shaping that goes on.
