WARNING I USED TO WORK FOR THIS COMPANY!
Edit 5/29/08
I just moved away but my Internet service always worked perfectly!
Edit 9/3/06
We have been purchased by another cable company and are now MetroCast Communications of Connecticut. It is still all the same people but we now have the backing of a larger company, we will still offer the same small town service but with more advanced technology. We now offer various speeds of Internet service, from dial-up replacements to full blown Business level services. The system will be undergoing a full plant upgrade which will enable more reliable service, faster Internet, Telephony, more channels, VOD and more HD. The most noticeable change was the upgrade from 3000/256 to 4000/384 for "standard" subscribers. This packages is now called "MetroCast Internet" and is our flagship product.
Edit 2/27/05
New tiers have been added, offering faster speeds, static ip's and allowing servers.
Edit 8/18/04
Speed has been increased from 2500/256 to 3000/256.
Edit 3/15/04
Speed has increased from 1500/128 to 2500/256 
Original review 8/24/03
the package is a 1500/128 for $38.95. this includes 5 email boxes with 20mb storage each and a ~20mb attachment size limit.
I installed it myself the day I moved out of the comcast franchise. took me all of 5 minutes after the cable work had been done. Speeds are 1500/128 with these speeds being rock solid. No matter what time of day, nor what day of year the modem hits the cap every time.
