Re: wow Uh, actually TWC doesn't cap anywhere at this point.
Also, TWC connections here are faster than Comcast connections in areas that haven't upgraded to DOCSIS 3. And cheaper; I can get 15/2 for $50 here. On Comcast that same tier would be $65-$75 IF Blast was available in my area, which it isn't. |

kudos:2 | Yes they did. The backlash from trying to cap Austin, Rochester, et al made them backpedal significantly. |

Only a few select areas have 15/2 service, a few more have 10/1, and then the remaining large percentage still has 7/384. |

kudos:2 | I'm talking about 15/2 as the "Turbo" service. I thought that all areas were upgraded to 10 Mbps down and 512+ kbps up for Turbo at this point. |

kudos:2 | Yeah, our tiers are cheaper here I think than in other places. We get 7/512 for $40. |

| Yeah, here we're in the same billing district (so to speak) as Austin (email addresses are @austin.rr.com). As a result, TWC's tiers are priced to compete with U-Verse and Grande Communications, so the $39.99 I'm talking about is without TV. Pretty nice actually, as long as you can get service and as long as TWC keeps the caps away. |
