They never replaced GSN on channel 78...so I doubt they will replace it with anything......maybe C-Span.
Remember.....this is TW we are talking about.
My ESPN classic is gone. I am not a happy camper. They had better replace it with another sport channel. I'm so mad!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Damn.. and I was thinking about switching from directtv to TW. oh no...
and not to mention their little disagreement with NFL NEtwork
Not that I'd ever condone stealing cable or anything, but googling digital cable descramblers would be a good place to start if I were looking for a little payback against TW.
If TW takes away NBA TV thats the final straw i'm switching!
they can fry em easy. they randomly send pulses down the line that ruin the card. if you have the pc adapter that can reprogram the card needed to enable the freebies you're set, but descramblers aren't terribly effective anymore.
For the past week none of my on demand works for one of my cable boxes, I always get a error and it's pissing me off. Anyone have this issue? I tried leaving it unplug for 10 mins and still nothing.
Switching from Direct to TW is stupid. Giving up 100% digital picture is like switching back to Dial up!
.....Constantly.
I just bought a plasma from Circuit City. I do not currently have HD.
If Circuity City adds the HD signal to my existing TW account, Circuit City will knock $100 off the price of the TV.
BUT, if I switch to Direct, CC will knock $300 off the price of the TV.
I am thinking about junking my TW package all together and getting another internet provider and home phone.
I emailed TW a couple of days ago and received this reply:
Ms. Steele,
I apologize for the issues that you've had with the service. The
channels moving from analog to digital are part of the preparation to have
all analog channels move to digital. This is an FCC mandate and should be
totally in effect by February, 9, 2009.
I have reviewed your account and found that you still had old codes for
your internet and I changed them which made your Roadrunner price
$39.95 for the same service. I was also about to give you six months at
$29.95 before it goes to the $39.95 price. I know it's not much, but I
hope it helps a little. If you have any other questions please send us an
email, chat, or call 210-244-0500 and we'd be happy to help you. Thank
you for being a Time Warner customer and have a nice day.
I've been thinking about making the switch to DirecTV, but I really like my cable internet and I'm not sure about DSL... Is there a way to have roadrunner and DirecTV? Or am I just SOL and have to suck it up for DSL or TW?
If DSL is available in your area then you should be able to have to have DSL and DTV. You have to be close enough to the main switch office to get DSL and the copper lines must be able to handle both data and voice. You can have just RoadRunner and DTV....I like my RoadRunner internet...that is not my problem....it is the channel packages and TW deleting channels. The way I understand it is they are getting ready to switch to all digital channels and I have to pay to switch, I have been a TW customer for several years, they don't seem to care. They have offers for subscribers but not established ones.
Right - I know I can get DSL with DTV. I was just curious if I could keep roadrunner and get DTV as well and how that would work since there is only the one line coming into the house?
I'm right there with you on TW deleting channels and their packages. That's why I'm making the switch.
I wouldn't know why not.
I truly hate DSL, I'll just say that and thats the biggest factor why I would hesitate to switch from cable unfortunately.
Or maybe its just that Dallas sucking donkey nuts made AT&T then SBC have their DSL signal randomly quit for a few hours at random times during the day or night.
Sory to hear that, DAS TEXAN. I live in the Sea World area, and I have had fewer than 2 problems with DSL since I got it 4 years ago. I use it for my wifi laptop in the house, a regular desktop computer, and now wifi/wired connection with my PS3. The phone works with everything else on as well.
I hate TWC. I have special pricing for HBO/Skinemax (which has better movies anyway) and the On-Demand channels, but the price will increase every 6 months. I'm hoping to get U-Verse come December. until then, i hate paying for a satellite if I have to pay for local channels and 4 boxes for 4 TVs.
I do like the local channels being HD on the HDTVs tho. I didn't know about ESPN Classic being moved. I was starting to enjoy watching the American Gladiators reruns.
Hey man DSL ain't to bad I was nervous about switching from cable to dsl but I like it way cheaper. I have a wireless router my computer, wifes laptop and Xbox all hooked up no problems. Just make sure you put filters everywhere including your house alarm if you have one. Although I have had sattelite for a couple of months its a better deal than Time Warner as soon as U-Verse comes in my area I am switching.
I live in the GVTC area and I'm just glad that we finally got our HD channel for NBC back. It's been dead for 3 days now. It finally started working during the 1st quarter of the game tonight.
Just scroll up or down one channel and back again. Works for me.
