oh how i wish we only had 1 or 2 crows..
We used to see 40 or 50 hanging around Del Taco or whatever fast food place had a lot of garbage waiting. The crows had their regular routes, pretty much like commuters going one way in the morning and returning in the evening, just like clockwork. That's history in this area.

There is no such thing as cable that is "as the crow flies."

West Nile just about killed them off in SoCal, but they are making a comback. We don't see the big flocks anymore, however. We see one or two crows flying together. Besides, routing on cable is more like "as the hummingbird flies."

I hope they include New Hartford when they upgrade Utica... I'm still at 4/384, about 10 miles not even from the Utica/New Hartford border.
I'm sure that New Hartford will be included. There is an article today in the Utica Observer Dispatch that talks about the Time Warner Utica cable hardware and infrastructure upgrade. Of course it also includes an April 1st rate increase so I do believe that the upgrades will be completed by then. Time Warner is really pushing their package deal in this area for TV-PHONE-HIGH SPEED INTERNET. That 4 down crap did not hold up in this area as far as the phone went. Many people I work with got rid of their phone due to low bandwidth and outage problems. It really makes sense to upgrade all cable download and bandwidth in this area. I don't really know for sure if it will be 10 down but for them to have a reliable phone network it would have to be close.
Time will tell.

One reference point might be
»Re: For those who transitioned from Comcast and Adelphia
which was trying to explain to Adelphia/Comcast 'refugees' that RR does not have a SINGLE SET OF PRICES AND TIERS nationally.

Regardless of what you thing is 'Fair and reasonable' - it's not going to change.

The web page for 10924 lists 7/512 for standard and 8/768 for premium. Whether that's going to change or not - well, you'll find out when it changes. RR doesn't announce these things, and their techs often find out when a customer tells them.

While you're waiting for your speed to increase, it would be helpful not to derail threads discussing California, Albany, or other franchises.

Thanks.

They cannot advertise speeds which do not exist. As soon as the upgrades are completed this area and all others will see the new speeds. Syracuse and Utica customers are just as important to Time Warner as is Rochester, Buffalo or anywhere else for that matter.

If it stays at 1MB I will just downgrade to regular Road Runner. I don't think RR Turbo is worth it with just 5 more MB download.

Edit: I just called Time Warner and they confirmed that standard Road Runner was 10/1 and Premium Road Runner was 15/1. I switched back to standard since I don't think it's worth it anymore.

Awesome, looks like three out of the five TW franchises in Upstate NY now have RR Premium at 15/1. The WNY and STNY franchises are the only ones left, both remain at 8/512Kb.
You forgot HVC. We're still on the old speeds here.

Why is my upload still slower than advertised and slower than most of you guys in Schenectady? I was averaging around 4900 kb/s until I just rebooted my modem. I still have my original modem, a Toshiba PCX1000. Would that be the problem?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,17934154 Sat, 03 Mar 2007 00:33:42 EDT Re: Finally ALBANY! http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,17933969 JackBauer : I agree.

No benefit on the upload, while I use to get a 33% boost in upload (compared to standard).

I'll either downgrade to standard, or move to FiOS when it becomes available.

I guess though to be honest, we should be reasonably happy... The old HFC networks had to be upgraded a lot to support this kind of bandwidth. Lots of node splitting.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,17933969 Fri, 02 Mar 2007 23:49:40 EDT Re: Finally ALBANY! http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,17933902 anon : I have premium 'Turbo RR' and my speed increased after I rebooted the modem RCA 425. The mdm must have needed to load a new update for the faster speeds. I guess with 10's of thousands of modems on their network it will take a little time to update every mdm on their network. I wondered if RR could handle the competition and I guess I got my answer tonight/



I had been looking at Fios but will hold off if these speeds stay like this. ;)]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,17933902 Fri, 02 Mar 2007 23:33:33 EDT Re: Finally ALBANY! http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,17933525 jmurx : could be worse....you could have my speeds, haha.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,17933525 Fri, 02 Mar 2007 22:24:33 EDT Re: Finally ALBANY! http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,17933505 DKRiscool : You know really, if they aren't going to up the upload on premium there's no reason to be paying for it anymore.
