Cable companies cannot provide the near 100% up-time that the telcos provide to the cellular networks. I am sure if the telcos can do, so can cable. It just a matter of copying the design. My power was out yesterday for 4 hrs, yet my phone worked. -- the darkest moment is often just before dawn (unless we hold onto the darkness). Anxiety spoils everything and solves nothing.
