Fantastic. It's four times faster than the "high-speed internet" DSL that I was getting through AT&T, for roughly the same price! For a while I had a good deal with AT&T that got me that slow internet for $20 a month, and for that, I could live with the buffering. Once it went up to the normal price of $59 a month, though, WITH additional $10 or $20 charges for when we went over the data cap, I lost patience. That drove me to look for a new ISP, and I couldn't be happier with Netwood. Now I pay $65 a month for unlimited data at a download speed of 10mbps+ (as opposed to the 2.5mbps that I had with AT&T). When I called AT&T to cancel, the best they could offer to try to keep my business was 6mbps at about $30 a month for a year. And then, of course, the price would shoot up again, and I'd have to keep calling... I'd much rather pay a straightforward, no-BS monthly fee and get a faster connection to boot. I don't know if your speeds or charges will be the same, because I think it varies based on location and business v. residential use (mine is residential), but I do know that Netwood warrants a call or email. In my experience, Bonnie responds to connectivity requests (http://netwood.net/data-connectivity-request-form.php) and emails VERY quickly, so it won't take long before you know whether they can help you out. For your sake, I hope they can! read more

Yes, FIVE, five stars. Netwood is my ISP. Their service and attention far surpasses that of the larger, more common providers (AT&T, Comcast, TW Cable). I sought an alternative after a HORRIBLE experience with AT&T, and, have been so happy to have found Netwood. Superior service, friendly, responsive staff, reasonable price ... what more could you ask for ?! I've also employed their services for web design and site maintainance, again, speed, service...SATISFACTION !!! read more

i was using DSL for almost 20 years in hollywood before i moved south to mid-city. i was finally ready to give up my landline and needed a new ISP but was mostly worried about getting a service that didn't work and not being able to cancel without a fee -- something that happened to a friend of mine who was with time warner. i was also interested in supporting a local business instead of some corporate giant. i read the reviews here on yelp and contacted netwood. the woman i worked with was super responsive and set me up with a service for $45 a month and no cancellation fee if it didn't work out. all in all, i was happy with the set up and installation but i was surprised to find out i was dealing with spectrum. so much for supporting a local small business... the service is okay. we have trouble streaming from time to time and service is not great at the ends of our apartment but we've gotten used to it, mostly. and then the rate jumped to $65 a month. apparently that was an introductory rate for the first year. i went back through all the emails exchanged with netwood and there isn't a single mention of an intro rate. so back to the drawing board for me... buyers beware. read more

Netwood Communications is the go-to for ensuring high-speed connectivity in our hyper-paced world! Prior to my discovery of Netwood, I had a contract with Verizon for the wireless connection in my household. Not only was the connection poor and often lost, the prices were high and the constant feud over my billing with an automated respondent was when I had enough. This is when I first came upon Netwood, and since then I have never been so pleased with my in-house connectivity. The staff are extremely knowledgable and they aim to provide a personalized service by tailoring their product to their customers needs. Beyond the A+ they earned in regard to their customer service, the service is fast and most importantly reliable. Being able to contact Netwood through their direct line provides for a more personalized experience overall. To this day, they have upheld our contract with faith, and their accounting department is very well-structured and we always receive our bill on time. I wish I had discovered Netwood sooner as they were the immediate solution to my ongoing connectivity struggles. I highly recommend them as the #1 local service provider to any household or business looking to gain the most out of their network experience. read more

I emailed Netwood. Bonnie replied, gave me the info I needed. When I was ready to get connected, I emailed Bonnie again. She arranged it. Bob the technician contacted me. I had to cancel and reschedule a few times, Bonnie and Bob were cool with that. Bob visited me, shook my hand, connected me, I was online. This is very different from the big ISPs because every time you talk to Netwood, you talk to Bonnie directly and she knows everything about the biz and has complete customer service powers to help me immediately. Funny thing is, I sent most of my emails to Bonnie on weekends or at night, and she always responded the same day! read more

I love Netwood. When I contact them, I'm instantly reminded how business was before the mega corporations took over the world. What a pleasure. Keep up the good work! read more

Good service. Nice phone support when needed. Thanks! DP read more

Knowing that I was going to work from home, I decided to hire an internet service that was, hopefully, as reliable as possible. After reading the Netwood reviews and yelp reviews claiming that the service was more reliable, my wife and I decided to take the bait and these are the things that we learned. 1) Their service is not reliable. We bought the 10 Mbps service, and at best the measured download speed would be 1.5 Mbps. At worst it was less than 1 Mbps (0.7 I measured once). The Quality of Service is horrible as well. 2) Installation. The installation for TWC costs $34.99. The installation through Netwood is $60. Without any significant value-added, Netwood is overcharign by $25.01. 3) Installation scheduling. We asked for an installation date and we were told the technician would call before arriving. We did not receive a call whatsoever, the technician came and left because we were moving from our old place into our new place. This meant that several days in which both my wife and I had to work were spent without internet. Remember that I have to work from home? Well, that plan was screwed over with. 4) Reliability of speed makes watching shows impossible. Netwood's own guidelines specify that a internet speed of 10 Mbps is enough to watch shows. The service was so slow, that we saw the loading screen more often than the commercials in the show! 5) Checking email is not better either. There was one day when both my wife and I had to work from home and we were just checking emails. My wife ended-up having to leave the house and go back to her workplace because the internet was so slow. Do yourself a favor and do not use Netwood. You got everything to lose and nothing to gain. read more

See all

I am disgusted by Netwood. Here is the series of events that has transpired over the past month.. - Bonnie quoted us $515. I was quoted this price verbally and in two different emails; it was also on our agreement that I signed. Then, AFTER I SIGNED THE AGREEMENT, they told me they "made an error" and that it was actually going to be $615. The way the offered to fix it was "we can take $100 off your installation fee" (which was over $400). I fought to get our rate and they reiterated, "there's nothing we can do." After several phone calls with Jonas, they finally compromised by offering us one free month; however, I've never experienced such POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE in my life. - They told me installation would take "7-10 business days." It took more than 30.. They had to come out four times, every time claiming "something didn't work correctly." - However, that didn't stop them from charging us. They charged us before the installation was even complete. - The most upsetting part is that I reiterated my needs over and over again from the beginning. I asked them what internet we needed to avoid problems and delays. They assured me this was it - two days after the installation, our internet was running at a 0.06 up and down. I literally had employees leaving to go work from home. They came back to fix it again - as of today, our speed tests still show that we're running at half the speed we pay for. - Despite the debacle and heinous experience, they refuse to let us out of the one year agreement - Lastly, and this is just a personal peeve, they respond to emails with "sure" and "yep," which feels incredibly unprofessional. Do yourself a favor and go with Digilink Network Services. read more

Complete failure of a company. On every level. I literally do not know how this establishment is in business. If you are a busy professional with a timeline and a schedule run, do not walk, but run from this company. A week of my life I'll never get back! The installation "process" involves a minimum of three visits from three different vendors. First Verizon for the backbone, second a netwood tech to establish service, and finally a third party vendor to run hard lines if you need connectivity in more than one room. Three days off work, another to pick up equipment they don't bring with them, but is shipped to you, and requires signature for delivery. So now I'm four days off into the "process" and still no service because each of the vendors is blaming the others for not doing their job. As for Bonnie and the "wow" experience (her motto/tagline)? Rubbish! She outsourced everything and then arranged unscheduled and unannounced "fix it" visits from her vendors (if you're counting we're now at 5+ visits and no service). Shockingly, since these follow ups we were never scheduled with us, and we weren't about to abandon our professional obligations to camp at the location waiting for surprise vendor visits, these had to be rescheduled. Final straw? I get an email from Bonnie asking if I can go to yet another vendor to return the equipment the mailed to me but never installed - because I wasn't able to recognize and respond to voicemails from multiple vendors and other non-bonnie people whose names and phone numbers I was unable to recognize because, you know, I'm running a business not working for Bonnie. Shockingly, just shockingly, when they discover I'm not lifting a finger to return equipment given the circumstances, they have an employee show up unannounced multiple times to collect it, and wake up a brand new baby and ultimately interrupt me in a customer meeting wondering why I'm not waiting for them. What a joke. read more

I used to be a ATT customer and was tired of their throttling and poor customer service. Netwood is a breath of fresh air. Great customer service! Bonnie is great and extremely responsive. My service has been running for a month and no issues. I am a satisfied customer. read more

Literally, the most helpful internet company I've ever encountered. Bonnie is such a pleasure to deal with; she is knowledgable and efficient. She got me hooked up with internet so quickly in my new apartment, for half the price of the major providers. Wonderful service :) read more

I've been working with Jonas as a client for about 4 years now and have had nothing but great experiences every time I've contacted Netwood to make a change, addition or inquiry. The difference you get with Netwood is the personal service and attention. Their technology, premium hardware and overall speed put them above the cookie cutter hosts everybody is probably familiar with. Custom plugins and SSH access are no problem either. If you need the power, they have it. I highly recommend Netwood Communications for any type of hosting. read more

I poured over Yelp reviews on several internet services before deciding to go with Netwood...I had no desire to give my money to At&t, Time Warner or Verizon or need to deal with their customer service. I spoke with Bonnie @ Netwood, who stated up front that they work with the Time Warner network. I had concerns about speed, because I was cutting the cord on DirecTV and needed reliable high speed to stream Netflix. She sent me information that showed the basic package would meet my needs to stream content effectively. Prior to Netwood, I shared Time Warner internet with my downstairs neighbor (we live in a duplex house) & streaming was impossible; the service was spotty and unreliable for both me and my neighbor, splitting a premium package (paying $80/mo). Bonnie assured me my dedicated internet service would be sufficient for my needs, and that has proven true. Netwood offers a choice of going month-to-month, or a six month contract stating that they will not raise the rates on you. The installation happened as scheduled & a small glitch of a missing router was solved when they shipped it & it arrived the next day. Their service has been nothing but prompt and attentive and my questions have been answered satisfactorily. I live in Hollywood-area; and I'm very grateful for reliable internet and the opportunity to support a local business. read more

Bonnie really is extremely helpful. She continued to assist me even after it was clear I would not be able to give her my business. Make hers your FIRST CALL if you're trying to trouble-shoot/upgrade your internet service. No B.S. read more

I run a software consulting business from home, so when I moved to LA I knew I couldn't rely on Time Warner's horrible customer service for the lifeblood of my communication with clients. Time Warner claimed they could get me faster speeds at a lower price, but they were unable to get me a receipt for my first payment inside of two weeks - so I cancelled and used Netwood. Everything was handled quickly and professionally and Bonnie is extremely friendly. Netwood uses Time Warners infrastructure and are a little more expensive, but for me it was worth the peace of mind to know I would never have to interact with Time Warner at all. The internet never went out the whole time I used Netwood and the installation was a breeze. I wish I could use them at my new apartment but unfortunately it is out of their service area. Highly recommended. read more

Netwood has consistently provided excellent service from a super friendly staff. I have used their company to provide several different solutions, over an extended period of time, and I would highly recommend them if you are seeking a company that can provide internet solutions. read more

BEST ISP ever!!! Bonnie and her team really know how to treat their customers. I would recommend their service to everyone!

I love Netwood. Wish I found them earlier! Large companies can be impersonal but Netwood is small enough to offer the personal touch and large enough to offer great service! read more

I have been using Netwood for 5 years and the DSL connectivity has been consistent and service exceptional. The great customer service is worth paying the little extra rather than having to deal with Verizon. Prior to making the switch I had EarthLink for 10+ years. What a difference when it comes to consistent connectivity and service!!! read more

Bonnie is amazing. She went out of her way to help me figure out options for my tricky situation. I have already recommended Netwood to a couple of friends. read more

I had internet through AT&T for years before a friend recommended Netwood. Every day I dealt with service dropping in and out; the only thing reliable was how unreliable it was. I thought, based on what I heard from other tenants, maybe my building was just doomed to poor quality internet service. Netwood proved me wrong. Since switching to Netwood a few years back, I haven't had any problems with service. It's been great. I absolutely recommend them. read more

Looking for a company that cares about your needs? NETWOOD COMMUNICATIONS is amazing!!! I tried many other providers, but none offered the attention and truly exceptional service of NETWOOD! It's a great local company offering a personal touch that shows you it's customers really matter! If you are seeking the quality you deserve, I highly recommend you switch to this awesome provider!!! A+A+A+! read more

i didn't know where to start looking when i needed internet for my new apartment. i sent Bonnie an email and she immediately responded. though she was unable to help me with my wireless needs (location, turf wars, etc) she was able to point me in the right direction and was insanely helpful the entire time. if i ever move again i'll be sure to call her first! read more

Great internet service and customer service! I have been with Netwood for several years and am highly satisfied with each interaction.

Fist of all I would like to say that bonnie is extremely helpful and honest. When it comes to setting up home internet and TV it was fast and easy without any hassle. I would highly recommend them! read more

Horrible to the point I'm depressed and anxious and nobody will help me and I'm being completely taken advantage of and bullied over the phone. Something went wrong with their system 3 months ago and I'm getting charged 350 dollars a month. I made multiple lengthy phone calls getting a lot of promises to help me but nobody calls back with a resolution because they can't figure it out. I'm the only one that can find out the problem. I work at home and on the internet all day. I have my own wireless at home that I'm connected to but Verizon is also charging me every second I'm on my phone even tho I am connected to home internet. They are fraugently charging me exorbanent fees illegally. In 3 months my 3rd bill is 1100.00 dollars. And they won't let me out of the contract despite they are not sticking to their part of the contract. I have lost so much sleep over this and cancelled so many clients because each call is at least 2 hours and I have made at least 10 including in store drop ins at Jefferson store. So now I have to hire an attorney to sue them costing me more money which I know I will win and they will have to pay thank god. Each client I have cancelled is $90 for the hour. And I have cancelled at least 10 over 3 months of this heart ache. If they interfere with me getting a home loan I will make sure they buy my next house. Documenting everything!!!! read more

Netwood is a middle man - you are just getting Time Warner service at an increased price. An employee was honest enough to give us this insight. We'll be dropping the middle man soon... read more

I don't know much about this internet and website stuff but when I started my small business, I knew I needed a site to post my material and advertise. I turned to Netwood Communications because they my area. I have to say, I am more than please. They got me set up on the internet AND created a great website. I still don't know much about the internet but I'm in good hands with Netwood. Thanks! read more

I have been with Jonas and Netwood for many years. I've had other email providers over the years but have never been more satisfied than I have been with Netwood. And it isn't just the predictability and stability of the system, either. When there have been occasional problems, I knew I could count on a quick and responsive solution, often in return email. This organization is a paragon of stellar customer service. I recommend it and them without reservation. read more

Wow amazing service!!! I called Netwood Communications because I am fed up with Time Warner. I spoke with Bonnie who can only be described as amazing. She responded to my email request within minutes late at night on a weekend. When I contact the company via phone she explained the services they offered and the service I contacted them for. She was very knowledgeable and responsive to my thoughts. No sales, just really friendly and helpful service. She told me step by step what to expect, the cost and helped me understand which speed would be good for me. She then went the extra mile to contact my provide to find my internet speed, go in behold she sent me an email letting me know that I actually had faster speed with my current provider. Holy Cow! She took the time to tell me that I had faster speed than what she could provide via the type of service I requested!!! Service like that folks is not found very often. For anyone looking for internet you must try them first they are truly a top quality company with out of this world great customer services. read more
