said by rcnman  :There is no link via the 2, FWIW. What channels are you seeing issues with? I kind of figured and then confirmed this reading your other posts. 
It seemed to happen on DVR recordings and, actually, on non-HD channels as well, I later realized. Hopefully it was temporary as things seem to be back to normal now.
Thanks as always, Jason.

Hi Jason and RCN - I am a brand spankin' new RCN subscriber in Montgomery County Md. I switched because of price. The remote is taking a hell of a time to get used to...but I will get there.
My question - is Montgomery County considered 'DC'. The reason I ask is last night, I called RCN and they said all systems were out in DC - but I was getting service.
This is important for me to understand because I watch nearly exclusive HD content. When I moved from Comcast, I didn't realize RCN did not have HD content on Demand. If I had a reference (June 20th??) as to when it was coming, I could suffer with the low amount of content upfront.
I presume (if I understand from the previous posts) we'll se HBO, Discovery, etc. HDVOD?
Thanks!! |

I believe that for channel line-ups and whatnot, they refer to the whole DC metro area as "DC" although I suppose outages could be more localized. |

| Thanks Jason. I appreciate the information that you and RCN are providing.
Despite an absolutely atricious install that has taken two days and is still not complete - the picture quality, content, and general happiness folks have with the service reassures me this was the right choice.
I am starting to see the light after being under Comcast's thumb for the last five years. Understanding RCN is trying to upgrade the 'right' way makes waiting for content, etc very easy.
Thanks. |
