For now I’m happy with Mediacom but they had just put this all in, so we'll see when they get a bigger network load...
Update: Since the review I have had 4 downtimes of about 10 minutes each, when it goes out its out along with my tv so id bet that its a tech messing or adding splitters or amps on a pole close by. Speeds are still good all except for my bad SN ratio which dips low enough at times to give me a few HFC: LOST TRC SYNC at times.
Update 3/30/03: Lately during peak hours I’ve been getting 300-600ms pings. The thing is, its on the 4th hop and not the local HFC IP. The 4th hop on its 400-600ms+, the lag starts @ 4pm and ends @ 12am. My downloads dip below 100k/s. I’ve contacted Mediacom and they sent me a ping tester, I’ve sent them in and haven’t gotten a reply yet. --- This only lasted 2 days, and then it was fine.
Update 10/05/03: The service has been good lately; there have been a few outages mainly during storms.
Update 02/18/04 Service has been good, I like then new caps. The outages have been increasing though
Update 2/8/05: I've been having slowdowns during peak hours, and Sundays are bad. There are almost weekly outages.
Update 4/18/05 I do not use Mediacom anymore.
