I'm serious about this question, my ISP is literally disappointing.

For the most part, Cox is alright. I just wish our family had a better mbps, but it works quite well with 6 people in one house.
Better than time warner cable!

I was on AT&T for ages but switched to Cox. They were kind of a safehaven for pirates, but after their lawsuit, not so sure...

Currently on Xfinity because it's the only other ISP in my area. Parents thankfully didn't choose AT&T.

I currently have Telstra and Optus. Both are about the same and perfectly adequate.

I have Proximus right now, but I don't think it exists in other countries (not for internet at least). They are pretty slow as well, the unlimited bandwith is an advantage though.

It's not a question that can be answered definitively. There's a lot of factors to consider.
It all depends on your locality, whether the services are available where you reside, need vs want In terms of reliability and/or speed, the caliber of competency with the technical support department , capped or unlimited quota and the list goes on.
You first need to establish exactly what you want and expect from a given ISP and work from there.

Surprised nobody has mentioned Verizon FiOS. The symmetrical speeds for residential customers is especially nice.
