Re: As usual, CV screws NJ said by RARPSL:said by Bobcat:We'll have to subsidize this with higher rates, but service won't be provided in NJ. CV's WiFi Access Points cover the NJT stations. Only some of them. Maybe even less than half. On my line, you cross between CV and Comcast territory multiple times on one trip, so there's no way CV would ever cover them all.

Only some of them. Maybe even less than half. On my line, you cross between CV and Comcast territory multiple times on one trip, so there's no way CV would ever cover them all. I acknowledge that some of the NJT routes are (partly or fully) in Comcast's territory. What I was attempting to address was that the article was about an offer made by CV to the MTA (covering the Metro-North and LIRR routes). The only Metro-North route in NJ is the use of the Bergen County/Mainline NJT route that is used by Port Jervis Express trains. Thus your comment has little to do with the issue since it is NJT that needs to talk to CV. In fact, I think that parts of the Suffern to Port Jervis line runs though TWC territory not CV territory (I'd need to look at their coverage map to see how far north they go before TWC takes over). |

How do Comcast users get a Cablevision ID in order to access a Cablevision access point? If the authorization page (it did originally) allowed you to put in an @optonline.net or @comcast.net or any other @ E-mail ID and the authorization system has access to the different databases, it would be a simple thing to allow.
If Authentication checked for the @ as an OOL subscriber you would not need to enter the @ on your home system but if you entered an @ it would check the relevant database. Of course there would need to be access to the other companies databases of E-mail addresses and passwords. This could be done via a simply relay, with CV asking a Comcast server is this a valid user and vice versa.

On my line, CV covers only 5 out of 24 train stations. |
