ShopForOCx.com, powered by ShopforT1's GeoQuote technology, regards your privacy as the first step in building a long term relationship of trust and loyalty. Our GeoQuote(tm) technology enables you to query the databases of over a dozen nationwide and regional T1 service providers in real-time. In order to perform this calculation for you, we require a nominal amount of personal data.

What happens to my information once I submit it to GeoQuote?

Just seconds after you submit your information, GeoQuote goes to work. A page of qualifying T1 service providers (without the names of the providers) will appear, with links to obtain detailed information about the plans you are viewing. After your price quote is obtained, GeoQuote stores the data you entered in our ulta-secure database. No third party can access our database so you can rest assured that you will not receive annoying phone calls or emails from multiple providers after entering your information here!

At the end of the process, your information is securely assigned to a member of our in-house consulting staff. That consultant will attempt to contact you via your preferred contact method in order to discuss your situation and find the right product at the right price. Helping you get a great rate on a T1 line is our first priority and you can rest assured that our team of trained and experienced consultants will give you the unbiased research you deserve.

T1 Internet Service Do's and Dont's

Written by: Patrick Oborn - Jun 1, 2025

While Dave Letterman may never read this list on his show, we've created a Top 10 list of California T1 Internet Providers. In our review of service providers we considered reliability, customer support, provisioning and financial stability. In our opinion a top provider of services will have a high rating in each of the categories. Unfortunately some of the providers we found were regional providers and may not be near you but two of them are so good you may just want to move closer to be on their network!

The top company in our survey was Telepacific. The only downside to this company is the fact that they only offer service in California and Las Vegas. Telepacific received top marks in all four or our categories and is what we recommend most to customers in California. The second carrier in our list was USLEC. Like our fist pick USLEC is a regional player offering services in the south and on the eastern seaboard. USLEC was founded and is run by engineers. These people have a passion for getting it right and keeping their customers happy. Number three on our list is New Edge Networks. New Edge is a national player found predominantly in metro areas. New Edge is large enough to be a strong player but still small enough to treat customers like a small company.

Our number four position goes to Netifice, formerly Epoch. Again, a small Tier 1 player but excellent service nationwide. Number five position goes to ACC Business. Available everywhere in the continental US, ACC used the ATT network exclusively and provides a high level of service. Positions six through ten when in the following order: Telarus, Sprint, Xspedius, PNG, and Megapath. When looking for a reliable provider you should be comfortable with any of these. Make sure you speak to your broker about the strengths and weaknesses of each carrier. While our rankings were based evenly on the four criteria mentioned at the beginning of the article you may decide that some criteria are more important to you than others. Good luck in your search.
