Cable, phone, internet— these are the modes of communication we rely on in the present day. With these three services, you can speak to anyone in the world, look up information on any topic, and watch your favorite television programs whenever you like. For nearly a decade, cable and internet providers have been selling packages that bundle all three services. While this is a convenient way to receive communication services, it isn’t always the highest quality and may not suit your specific needs.

Here, Clear Creek Communications, a cable company in Oregon City, OR, explains what you should be looking for in all three of these services and how to get more from your cable or internet provider.

Phone

Because of the advent of cellphones, many people are choosing to forego the use of landlines altogether. However, when you are home, a landline phone will still provide better reception than a cellphone, and is especially useful if your phone runs out of charge. If you choose a bundle with phone service, it should include features such as call-waiting, three-way calling, and caller-ID as standard.

Internet

A high-speed internet connection is a necessity in most homes. Whether you use the internet for your home office, gaming, or just browsing the web, you need a robust, reliable connection you can count on. Your internet provider should establish a Wi-Fi connection in your household which can handle multiple devices—if your connection frequently cuts out, slows down when other users are online, or you have a hard time connecting at all, you may need to find another provider.

Cable

Your cable company will most likely provide all three services in a bundle. However, the service they will promote most strongly is their cable. Cable TV packages are produced in various tiers. The lowest tier will include all of your local channels and a few cable favorites such as TBS or AMC. Higher tiers will include Pay-Per-View networks and specialty channels such as Starz and HBO. If your cable company does not provide even the most basic channels or charges a very high price for their service, you should consider finding a new provider.
