<description><![CDATA[<A HREF="/useremail/u/1300003"><b>IWLoneWolf</b></A> : The first avenue I believe would be to contact tech support explain you are having issues and would like help up grading your modems firmware to see if the upgrade would fix the issues. I would think they would could help you get the latest firmware. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<A HREF="/useremail/u/1540813"><b>wildgator360</b></A> : I have the SB5101 and it was the replacement for my Toshiba PCX2200. I don't know if they have the SB5120 here or not. Also, I noticed the firmware is not the latest release available. Does anyone know if the new firmware will help any and how do I get Charter to push it to me as I've seen a lot of posts about having trouble getting the firmware push?]]></description>

Yesterday was not so bad as I was able to pull down around 6 1/2 to 7 mb on my download at 5:30 PM. But it still erks you that you pay for something and not get it. DSL was on the money with their speeds no matter what time of day or if bad weather was in the area.

<description><![CDATA[<A HREF="/useremail/u/1300003"><b>IWLoneWolf</b></A> : Well my good friend who knows much about computers networking and the internet has told me and I know from my own experience that the first person you will often talk to when calling most tech supports is often just a phone answer (this is not always the case ) and in some cases will tell you they are a tech ,but they may only be able to tell you information ,like your provisioned service speed if there are reported issues in there network or such.In some cases these may be considered level one techs.In some cases a level two tech might be able to help you , it may depend on the the isp.I just know my friend has said that he did not get some of th real issues resolved with his internet service until he talked to a level three tech , told him where the problem was stemming from .At that point the tech looked at the hop in question and admitted the it was a old node that was being overloaded.The node was upgraded and his issues with his internet went away.So he has told me that if you do not get result with many attempts with them contact your isp and ask to be transferred to a level three tech.If the first person at tech support can resolve your issues then that is great and you can consider your self very fortunate to be spared the long list of phone calls some have gone through]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<A HREF="/useremail/u/1540813"><b>wildgator360</b></A> : I am in Greer, SC in a fairly new subdivision.I had the 5mb package earlier this week, but the speeds were so slow in the afternoon/evening/night hours that surfing the web and using xbox live was rediculous. Download speeds were well below 2mb, but were fluctuating nonstop. Ping to speedtest.net's georgia site was above 999ms. After MANY calls to Charter tech support, I agreed to have tech come out and check the line. No problem he reported, but told my wife that "Evening and night hours are when the most people are on, so speeds will be slow then."<br>Allrighty then, thank you for your college level response to my problem Handy Mandy. I called Charter back that day and had the speed adjusted to 10mb package. I get home and do the speed test, and I average only around 3-5mb download and half the upload speed. I call Charter the next morning and get a modem replacement, SB5101 to replace my Toshiba PCX2200. Upload speed goes to 1mb, but still same shitty download speeds. When I check in the mornings, the speed is just as I pay for, 10 down, 1 up. But after 2 PM, you can forget about it. I just want to know when it's going to be fixed, because it hasn't been like this before the past 3 weeks/month, so what gives Charter?]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<A HREF="/useremail/u/1223681"><b>chtr_sc</b></A> : sorry to hear that you don't want any help.  If that is the way you want to work toward a resolution then so be it.  Others that are having an issue please let me know or post on the other topic of slow speeds in the upstate and I will do what I can.  I believe we have the pop connection fixed and we still have some areas that have some contention that is on the road map to be fixed soon and I will let you know if you are in one of those area's.  thanks]]></description>
