Re: It's sad... said by hottboiinnc:There is more to the story than that. @Home was the ISP for Cox. They were the ISP for MANY cable companies. it was always Name@home or something like that. Comcast, cablevision, Cox, etc. What did you want Cox to do? shut your Internet off and then let you go back to dial-up?  Cox took @home and immediately lowered established speeds which where working fine.
Please explain to me why cox, who took over @home and their equipment was unable to offer the same level of service for a decade?
Please give us the missing part of the story........... |

| Cox started to offer you the service that @home could no longer.
And as far as lowering the speed? What else did you have available? Dial-up? ISDN? IDSL? Market talks |

More like non competitive Monopoly talks ( with numerous local and state tax incentives).
And please we are all waiting for the "more" to the story part you eluded too ( the whole story of which I'm very very familiar with ), like it somehow matters.
Point is, a Monopolistic minded company took over my internet and I lost, literally a decades worth of speeds over night. |

·WOW Internet and..
| They don't hold a monoploy. You and everyone is free to compete. The fact is YOU DON'T and NOBODY else wants to either. So you're stuck with what they give you. You either like it or you don't and go some where else.
And what "more" do you want? That is the fact of the story. They either kept providing you the service or they could have shut you off and let you go back to dial-up. In my case, If i was them. I surely would have left you go back.
Be thankful you actually had cable modem that long instead of being on dial-up until 2003 when TWC finally talked your family run "cable" company into selling to them. |

2 edits | Wow, first you incorrectly assume they are not a monopoly in my area ( which they are ) then you also incorrectly assume dial-up was an option ( which it was not due to line quality issues ).
Wrong on all counts ! Bravo !
Please read very slow : COX IS A MONOPOLY IN MY AREA
You have also completely failed to give any reason as to why Cox, who took over @homes network, found it reasonable to degrade it 200-300% and CHARGE MORE AT THE SAME TIME |
