Re: Who got a transition e-mail last night?

The welcome.comcast.net transition site finally worked for us tonight, and we now have @comcast.net addresses using our old Adelphia usernames, and of course hav full access to comcast.net and all the tools and features of Comcast HSI. It looks like the final curtain is closing on Adelphia here in Mendocino County in Northern California.

I hear ya, I am not looking forward to them cutting ours back! I don't think the 8000 down is available here yet, that may be why they still have us with legacy Adelphia IP's and Config files. They have migrated everything over EXCEPT our physical network, I'm not sure why they haven't switched the actual, physical network yet, maybe they're waiting on connections to their North Bay Network (which is what we're a part of now, they peer to SF, 115 miles south of us).

Currently, we still go via the legacy Adelphia connection to the backbone in L.A., which is owned by RR now, the local CMTS in Ukiah is now owned by Comcast of course, but once it leaves Ukiah for L.A. it's RR's network now.

Edit-It will be nice to have some local peering, here's a traceroute to the Mendocino Community College in Ukiah, 8 miles south of me. We go over 500 miles south to L.A. to get to the backbone, then back another 500 miles to SF, then 115 miles to Ukiah-

From what I was told we'll get the option of 8/768 sometime in April.. One thing that was good for non-premiere customers is that 6/368 is now available everywhere. As for us premiere customers we have top wait to get our upload back.. Even when we get it we still lost upload speed. I download at 6.05 Mbps from newsgroups when I used to download at 6.8.. My upload was about 880Kbps and at best it'll be just under 768Kbps when they get around to it. I'm bummed, I want FiOS.

As an update to this thread the second e-mail (transition complete) just went out.

You've got it better than I do Mike Other comp on this router might be causing some slowness, but ugh.

Not by much I don't I think they must be doing some tweaking of the network right now, I hope that's what it is anyway.

I never even used newsgroups on Adelphia, but I miss the 768 upload. We are getting the 8000/768 tier soon, and PowerBoost should already be here, but as far as I can tell isn't.

I'm pretty excited to have real local routing now, we go to Windsor to get to the net instead of L.A., much closer

Edit-Did you get your email and account migrated over alright? We've not got Comcast email and access to the online account manager, as well as all the other goodies

Cool, I did our email Satuday night, and also registered for our online account management. Monday night around Midnight is when we were switched over to the Comcast network.

@verizon.net

Man...In August, word of a switch form Adelphia to TW (RR) hit...I immediatly called TW and asked what the plans would be. The lady said "I don't have that information...we'll let you know in a few months". I said "So wait, I'm going to continue paying $60 a month for 6mb service, and you can't tell me if my price will go up or down, or if I'll get a speed increase?"..."NO"...

Angrily, I typed my name into the VZ Fios webpage...To my shock (though not too shocking since I had seen fiber being layed a month before) Fios was available...I ordered it and called back TW...

I was thinking "Ok, they will try to get me to stay by promising me fasters speeds or better rates"...
CS REP : Thank you for calling Time Warner how can I help you
ME : I want to cancel my service
CS REP : OK...One moment....OK so you want to discontinue service?
ME : Yes...
CS REP : OK...no problem...
ME (Getting Desperate for her to TRY to save my business) : Well, I'm going to Verizon...3x the speed at $10 less a month
CS REP : OK...your service has been terminated. Is there anything else I can do for you today?
ME : I guess not...

Not ONCE did they try to save my business...If I had acted that way at work, I would be strung up! The cable comanie's (especially TW) arrogance amazes me...Now I'm a happy 15/2 VZ customer and am switching to thier TV today as well...

@verizon.net

OK..Apparently I can't edit as ANON...Can you edit as a registered user? If so I'll have to do that...Either way, I meant I typed in my PHONE NUMBER not my NAME...And I apologize for my spelling errors..(I never think to use the spell check..lol)

So what did you want her to do?

Depending when you called and at what position the migration was, the chances that the new speed plans and retention offers were in limbo.

and no you cant edit as anon.

First people complain that a company will do ANYthing to save a customer, and now they don't and you complain. reminds me of Austin Powers Gold Member.

Goldmember: Would you like a shmoke und a pancake?
Austin: No
Goldmember: You know, a flapjack und a shigarette? No?
Austin: [Shakes Head]
Goldmember: Shigar und a waffle? No?
Austin: [Shakes Head]'
Goldmember: Pipe und a crepe? No?
Austin: [Shakes Head]
Goldmember: Bong und a blintz?
Austin and Nigel: No.
Goldmember: Well, then there ish no pleashing you.

and there is no pleashing you, enjoy your FIOS.

Well no transition EMail here, it just switched along with everyone else in the NEO area, one thing, for those that call in their payments using the automated payment system, have fun ... You will be ready to shoot someone when you final manage to make your payment, I am not "blaming" anyone, it is probably just a glitch that will be fixed come next month, the rep I spoke with was very apologetic about it, he was having "fun" too.
