I live in West Knoxville, the Cedar Bluff area. I have Knology Cable Internet access and love it. It is extremely fast and very reliable. Knology advertises 1.5Mb down and up to 256 KB up. I almost always get over 2 Mb down and 256K up. I have not noticed any significant drops in speed or increased pings during peak times (like someone I used to use, Comcast). I use my connection for VPN connection to home and work. I also use my Xbox live connection. Knology is not available in all of Knoxville right now. They are rapidly setting up new areas daily. I would highly recommend Knology to anyone that can get it member for 23.1 years, 5545 visits, last login: 99 days ago lodged 21.1 years ago
I ordered a cable modem when I realized I could bundle internet and cable for approx $10.00 more than I was paying for AOl and Cable separately. My connection speeds have historically been all over the spectrum form absolutely poor to just above rated levels(1500/256). Note: I have not been able to find where they actually rate there speeds in writing. The numbers above were provide by the technician himself and confirmed by a local competitor(Comcast). Overall Knology is just acceptable. Cost= $ 49.95 along $ 39.95 with cable tv $29.95 with cable and phone See speed test results below: 2003-01-06 23:29:58 Speed test (ec) 1419/182 kbps 2003-01-06 23:29:12 Speed test (ec) 1430/92 kbps 2003-01-06 22:53:07 Speed test (ec) 1344/148 kbps 2003-01-06 22:33:53 Speed test (ec) 1328/231 kbps 2002-12-25 03:22:56 Speed test (ec) 1421/59 kbps 2002-12-24 12:37:59 Speed test (ec) 1492/244 kbps 2002-12-24 04:50:05 Speed test (ec) 1447/235 kbps 2002-12-24 04:43:48 Speed test (ec) 1620/167 kbps 2002-12-24 04:38:39 Speed test (ec) 1381/198 kbps 2002-12-24 04:32:44 Speed test (ec) 1500/60 kbps 2002-12-24 03:07:34 Speed test (ec) 1438/102 kbps 2002-12-24 03:05:33 Speed test (wc) 36/33 kbps 2002-12-24 02:29:19 Speed test (ec) 1460/174 kbps 2002-12-24 02:30:40 Line quality ping tests cancelled View.. 2002-12-24 02:14:22 Security Scan View results 2002-12-05 00:31:51 Security Scan View results 2002-12-05 00:15:55 Speed test (la) 1464/192 kbps 2002-12-05 00:14:53 Speed test (support.knology.net) 1440/0 kbps 2002-12-05 00:13:59 Speed test (support.knology.net) 1404/113 kbps 2002-11-26 16:56:54 Speed test (la) 1447/151 kbps 2002-11-26 16:54:25 Speed test (ec) 696/202 kbps member for 21.7 years, 229 visits, last login: 3.3 years ago lodged 21.2 years ago
I've been using Knology for about a year and a half. It has been the most reliable and easiest broadband provider I've dealt with and I've been using broadband for about 2.5 years now. I've only had no major outages with Knology. Tech support is easy to reach. I've never had to wait more than 5 minutes to reach a tech. My speeds have always been near or faster than advertised with no slowdowns during peak periods. Simply put it works and it works well. The price is still pretty good even though it recently went from $30/month to $35/month. That price is with using my own modem and bundled with their TV and phone service. The price does go up $10 for each of those services you don't buy from them. member for 23.6 years, 1505 visits, last login: 10.1 years ago lodged 21.2 years ago
