Re: Bailing out a Charter customer...
Charter doesn't support USB connections. That's why the tech didn't do anything. Sorry about your troubles. |

| since when do they not support usb connections??
Quote from Charter.com
Although a USB can be used to connect your cable modem to your computer, using an ethernet connection is preferable to using a USB connection.
And for some odd reason We (the contractors of my area) cannot get any Nic cards to install, so if its an old pc and has a usb port and no nic card we have to install it via usb. |

Wasn't any trouble for me; I actually made a little money off of this. Charter sub had to spring for a NIC, though. No cheapo "Big Box" outlet nearby, so a little more expensive than the $7 NICs I've seen at Fry's Electronics.
But I felt a little sorry for the tech; he looked a bit foolish, in the sub's eyes, because of this.
