Re: Newcomer to WOW

I currently have the triple play and I've been happy with it. The phone is clear and it just works. The internet is fast with low pings.

The only thing to look out for is that Wow's bundle is Digital Value. This is just the standard analog channels along with WOW's on demand channel and the music channels. I'm not sure what channels your getting with Comcast but you won't get any of the channels listed in the Digital Basic section on WOW's channel list. This was the only issue I really had as I was confused on what was included. You can upgrade the bundle to include digital basic for and extra $12/month if you want any of the channels.

The other issue is that the DVR you get is a standard def only, if you want a HD DVR you have to play the full $11.99 as the standard def one is part of the bundle and not billed separately.

I didn't have any issues with the installer for my area as he was a company tech and was extremely happy when he say that I already ran my own new cable inside.

I did find it interesting that the "free" dvr even though standard def, put out a 480p signal. My TV looks better with that, rather then a direct cable connection, which my TV shows as 480i.

I wonder if there's anyway to get the included DVR to put out a high def signal, since it's an 8300HD.
