Hopefully the new company, Morris Broadband will hire most of those employees!

No hard feelings Mediacom... thanks for a great job!]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22396542 Fri, 15 May 2009 22:13:24 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22378670 Prof_Chaos : @ Rob - Thanks for the heads up :) I also heard that Navarre doesn't have liquor licenses :huh: I'll be sure to let you know what my experience with the DVR is. I opted for the 20/2 service and it looks like my bill is going to be cheaper than with Cox. I'll have less HD channels, but that comes with Starz Pak and Encore.

@ IowaStudent - I'm not a network guy either, but your numbers look pretty reasonable. Here's to hoping on finding out first hand! :D]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22378670 Tue, 12 May 2009 17:05:25 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22378566 IowaStudent : Do my speed's sound reasonable? that Mediacom might choose those for new service levels?

I'm moving a few towns over (FL - Gulf Coast) and will be switching from Cox to Mediacom. Needless to say, I wasn't too thrilled about this at first, but it might end up being a blessing in disguise.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22378397 Tue, 12 May 2009 16:14:40 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22377968 burner50 : Makes me wish I was still an employee...

But I doubt des moines will get it first, because it is their largest market.

They will probably start with the smaller markets first as the rollout will be easier, mush like they did with the phone service.

for speeds:
5/384 Intro
12/768 Standard
16/1 VIP
26/2 Max (To say to the Iowa phone companies you can't compete with us at these speeds)
50/5 Ultra (D3)
Is what I would like to see
as, others have stated in the past. I hope they are planning the network for peak performance to avoid the slowdowns experienced by some users on the current max plan.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22376266 Tue, 12 May 2009 10:12:58 EDT
