It's the first week in February, and internet is still slow.

Must just be that end of town. Over by the airport the speeds seem pretty good.

It's not just weekends now....this is a speed test from 3:25pm

Now im being told late March for the update...and that they're working on the issies my node...more bullshit over and over...

Well, I know it's frustrating but they really are not going to invest a lot of money in the old equipment right now when they are trying to roll out docsis 3 equipment. That should fix your issues and is what "is being worked on" for your node issues I would assume.

Our D3 rollout was pushed back about 2 months here. Now speeds are pretty solid. Here is my non-edge in PC:

some how, for like 2 secs i managed to get 15 mbps on a speed test a minute ago... then it fell back down and went back to 6....

oh well.

i did have to reset my modem to day. for some reason, i had no internet. it just went down...

It's pretty obvious that my node is overloaded....they're not splitting it or doing anything about it...just hoping Docsis fixes the issues...but, if it was overloaded before, it's only a matter of time before it's overloaded again...or we wont be getting the speeds advertised.....

This is a speedtest Saturday night at 10:07pm....



My freakin' upload speed is higher than my download speed! And my ping is atrocious! I've been having these issues for over three months, and they're obviously not doing shit to fix it...yet I'm still having to pay the internet portion of my bill...

Anyone know a site that reviews how Charter and Mediacom are in a particular area? I've heard their services are bad, but can it get any worse than this????? I find it hard to believe that it could...

hello.. i think they are working on it...

Re: It's the first week in February, and internet is still slow.

Does anyone know if it's possible to have two cable isp's at once? For example, have Meciacom drop me a line purely for internet, while keeping my knology services?

Neither company cares what you have from another provider.... I have Knology for phone/ internet, and I use DirecTV for television.

That's not what I'm asking......is it possible to have another cable internet connection installed, being that you allready have one, and have two different isp's at the same time?

reply to bramma_99
Same answer, yes. It requires two separate cable lines, one for each modem.

Just know that Mediacom will tack on a hefty fee for internet-only service.

I thought a house would only have one cable line running into it....thus my question wondering if you could have two isps at once...or does each cable provider have a different cable running to your home?

Each ISP has their own cable line to your house. They can't/won't combine signals into one cable.

Got this one right around midnight...hand shot up to over 15mbps for a little while at the beginning....
