We have Time Warner. It works great for us.
it is probably the most expensive.. but as far as the service goes, NEVER have had a problem.
TW bought out ComCrap in Dallas, too. Won't miss those annoying "let's yell at people" ComCrap commercials.
I agree No Problems but it is expensiveit is probably the most expensive.. but as far as the service goes, NEVER have had a problem.
Now you are a Time Warner Customer too! You, me and Gino.
Comcast is replacing TW in Houston ... I'm going to attempt to move before that happens because I wanted to ditch my SBC in favor of TW.
DSL blows
wat sort of connection you guys get?? and cap plan?
I have it at work not at the house
at work right now I get between 3.63 Mbps and up to 7
usually closer to 3.6
I can not complain at all. has been reliable.
at the house it would be $6-
the business pays $130 and but that comes with the best level of tech support and they are suppose to come to the business the same day if it goes down
(the sun melted the cable before) and a static ip address
I hope it does not go up
Look into "Roadrunner Lite".
I'm not sure it's available to anybody who wants it, but we were offered it. It's a good $15 a month less than regular Roadrunner and the speed isn't anywhere near dial-up. It's just a slightly slower version cable...well worth the $15 less per month.
RR lite is available to anyone, they just dont advertise it. Its mainly used as a retention offer but anyone can get it if they ask.
DSL > RR Lite if you get the right deal. Just downloading a torrent with PeerGuardian enabled will kill RR Lite's speed - you won't be able to do anything else.
Standard RR is fine, though we had to have most of our outside cables eventually replaced and repositioned/buried somewhere else.
I have had it for years. No problems here in SA. It can get costly having both cable and roadrunner. You will notice that when there isn't a darn thing on cable to watch and you start to wonder why you are paying up the wazoo for nothing.Timewarner bought out adelphia

That is more my style. I've got to cut costs somewhere so I think I'm going to drop the digital thing since I don't watch half if not more of the channels we get.
Time Warner is so expensive, here in Nebraska they offer both Road Runner and Earthlink. So I switch back and forth between the 2 ISPs to hit the sales. Earthlink once a year or so has a special for 6 months at $30 a month, and RR has a promotion once or twice a year for 3 months for $30 a service. Usually between the 2 you can have highspeed for $30 a month for the majority of the year, otherwise it is $45 w/cable service and $50 w/o.
Their digital cable service is alright, but it is really expensive. Plus they are limited on HD channels, they have about 15. Their InDemand and OnDemand service is kind of crappy because it breaks up alot, my HBO InDemand s up all the time. There are also a number of channels that break up and and have that Matrix-like effect, it gets really old. The only service I can compare it to is Cox Cable, Omaha has Cox and Lincoln has TW. I'd have to say TW is better because it comes out with all the new technology faster, but it is a bit more expensive.
I've been looking into getting a dish service instead, but I'd pretty much have to keep my internet through TW. There is DSL here and it is less expensive, but I've heard that the speed of that is dependent on where you live, so it can be a good or bad deal.
they say prices and the bill will not change
I believe that when I see it though
they can get away with charging what they do because it does not use a phone line$60 is not that bad I do not think
$10 for dial up plus $25 for for phone line is cheap
aol charges you $30 plus pus $25 for additional phone line is $55
55 is cheaper then $60 but high speed is up to 50 times faster
no brainer to go to highspeed if you get HIGH SPEED!
Just tell TW to put it on your bill.
I am losing TW for Comcast in Houston.. Any thoughts on Comcast? Do they offer the NBA League Pass???
It is advertised to newer houses/neighborhoods in the Stone Oak area though.
When we moved in there was a little flyer on the door with an agents name offering it, along with regular Roadrunner.
SWB, oops AT&T is offering DSL Pro (3 Mbps down/512 kB up) for $17.99/mo (12 month contract). I've been using it to home office for years w/o significant problems. I can count the number of times we've had drops on one hand with fingers left over. It's always been plenty fast for us. No second phone line, no ludicrous cable charges either.
It works for me.
I don't need the super lightning fast cable, I don't play any online games or download a lot of torrents where the slightly lower speed might be noticeable. For simple day-to-day stuff like surfing/email/messengers/payingbills and what not Lite is lovely. It's still MUCH better then dialup, and almost half of what we used to pay for regular Roadrunner.
My DSL dies when I'm using BT ... 3mbps/50kbps. The upload is horrible, and being capped at 300kb/s REALLY sucks when RR caps at 500-600kb/s EASY, if not 800kb/s.
The DSL Pro package is like $40 a month which is the same cost as the RR package with digital cable (which will be required soon) ... Personally I use a cell, not my local phone so it's wasted and I'd rather have the higher cap along with my cable TV than a DSL line and phone I never really use.
Time Warner is expensive but the alternatives are kinda crappy so here in S.A...you're limited...I've got basic cable and Road Runner...roughly about $90 a month for both...I usually get 4.0 - 4.1 megabits/sec...
