head to head

customers in NYC know the deal where FIOS and TWC high speed compete in the same footprint. cablemodems do NOT compare to FTTP throughput 24/7/365. Fiber is dedicated provisioning, Docsis 1-3 is NOT dedicated provisioning in the last mile. You will pay MORE though, that's the reality of the matter... so if the dedicated speed means more to you or you get crap service from the cable provider, AND you have the cash to spare.. your choice is clear. When docsis 3 rolls around, they can make it a more enticing deal, but not likely-- they'll just be a good enough alternative to what Verizon does, not beat them on overall throughput & price.

A few years ago I was satisfied with Time Warner.

I moved and was able to get Cable Vision service I was extremely pleased.

Now I'm back in an area that's TW and they freakin' suck (IMO)nowadays. In the early mornings my speeds are some what ok. Anytime after 12am forget it... traffic city. My speeds are often less than 3Mbits.

I miss CV.

FiOS just started getting layed about 3-4 miles south of here. They are sweeping the area from there to the north, and im in the way. In about 7mos. I say, they will be down here, once its all done and ready, im calling TWC and saying bye bye. Last night, the latency was horrific. I went to my friends house and had no problems connecting from his DSL line. I envy my friend and his sweet DSL line.
