“Speed and the reliability of that speed are top priorities of Internet users and for the second time, an independent research firm, comScore, Inc., ranked Charter's Internet speeds fastest and most reliable in the communities we serve. Our customers value the enhanced speed because with Charter Business® Internet Max, at 16 Mbps they can download a song in just 2.5 seconds, or as many as 24 photos in just 8 seconds,” said Ted Schremp, Senior Vice President of Product Management and Strategy for Charter. “When bundled with our TV and telephone services, Charter Internet Max represents an even greater value for our customers,” Mr. Schremp concluded.

Charter Business, which offers services to business, education and government, also offers up to 16 Mbps Internet service in Georgia. Charter's high-speed reliability is critical to businesses that depend on Internet applications to succeed. In addition, Charter Business supports its customers with a dedicated team of care agents specifically trained to handle the needs of small, medium, and large-scale enterprises.

Charter Internet Max is the premium tier of service for Charter customers and is up to 9x as fast as DSL and 270x as fast as dial-up. Charter also offers Charter High-Speed Plus, with download speeds up to 10 Mbps, and Charter Internet, with download speeds up to 5 Mbps.
