I'll just add fuck Cox (huehue) as well. Had them while in PVD for a couple years and I've never had a worse ISP in the United States. Yes it was cheaper than Verizon (although only marginally for the plan we had) but we'd lose service ALL THE TIME. We lived in a townhouse and the other two units had verizon and would never lose service when we did. Little windy in the winter - no internet for 12 hours, a particularly rainy spring day - bye bye internet, oh its august and its hot - no internet for you. It happened all the time, probably 20+ times throughout the year (we'd still have power just no internet), and it would always last a minimum of 4-5 hours before service would be restored. They never sent anybody out to fix anything at our place as we were told it was always "on their end" and related to larger infrastructure breakdowns.

Verizon can be real scummy about pricing, definitely check if there are any discounts you might be eligible for (if you have verizon for your cell service) as they will NOT automatically apply the discount, you literally have to "apply" for it. That being said, the service has always been as advertised with upload/download speeds as expected. Plus, after having verizon for 4+ years now in RI (across 2 different residences) I can't remember a single instance where we lost service (aside from when we lost power all together)
