 $53 per month about 14 days "Good speeds and uptimes." "Sometimes technical problems on their ends like outages, firmware problems with modems, support, prices go up every year, etc." "Good when it worked."

I used to have Excite@Home and Adelphia PowerLink for broadband Internet before they went bust and Time Warner Cable took over. During those early days since 3/10/2001 for several years sucked badly (DNS' don't work, uptimes and speeds (e.g., 150 kB/sec during the early morning hours) were awful, etc.). Adelphia finally upgraded their cable system to be DOCSIS in the city, and it was fast and stable! Then, they went out of business. Time Warner Cable reused the same cable system, and so far so good. There were rare times of outages, slow speeds, etc. I think the longest uptime was almost all daytime, but TWC will make up for the time loss of your next bill if you tell them.
Note that I can't get any fast and cheap broadband services (e.g., DSL is too far due to 20K feet to CO according to GTE and Verizon). Also, no FIOS. Dial-up sucks (3 KB/sec).
