Don't feel alone. I live two hours from where you are and I'm getting the same speeds you're getting. Yes, I'm also sick of it too.

Awesome, looks like three out of the five TW franchises in Upstate NY now have RR Premium at 15/1. The WNY and STNY franchises are the only ones left, both remain at 8/512Kb.

You forgot HVC. We're still on the old speeds here.

Premium. I was hoping for faster upload. But this is decent.

Re: Finally ALBANY!

You know really, if they aren't going to up the upload on premium there's no reason to be paying for it anymore.

15/1 from 10/1 isn't a $10-$20 a month difference to me.

Re: Finally ALBANY!

I agree.

No benefit on the upload, while I use to get a 33% boost in upload (compared to standard).

I'll either downgrade to standard, or move to FiOS when it becomes available.

I guess though to be honest, we should be reasonably happy... The old HFC networks had to be upgraded a lot to support this kind of bandwidth. Lots of node splitting.

Re: Finally ALBANY!



Why is my upload still slower than advertised and slower than most of you guys in Schenectady? I was averaging around 4900 kb/s until I just rebooted my modem. I still have my original modem, a Toshiba PCX1000. Would that be the problem?

all i want to know is if my area is going to actually get an upgrade in the near future. if i know that then i can base my anger on something rather on just waiting.

could be worse....you could have my speeds, haha.

@rr.com

I have premium 'Turbo RR' and my speed increased after I rebooted the modem RCA 425. The mdm must have needed to load a new update for the faster speeds. I guess with 10's of thousands of modems on their network it will take a little time to update every mdm on their network. I wondered if RR could handle the competition and I guess I got my answer tonight/



I had been looking at Fios but will hold off if these speeds stay like this.

Try rebooting your modem and see if that helps. I had to reboot the modem myself. Last increase they rebooted the modems.

Re: Finally ALBANY!

If you are in the TWC Albany Zone you just need to reboot the modem and if you have a VOIP modem from TWC pull the battery too and you should see the speed increase !

Re: Finally ALBANY!

I'm kinda hoping us premium customer get a faster upload. If it stays at 1MB I will just downgrade to regular Road Runner. I don't think RR Turbo is worth it with just 5 more MB download.

Edit: I just called Time Warner and they confirmed that standard Road Runner was 10/1 and Premium Road Runner was 15/1. I switched back to standard since I don't think it's worth it anymore. But hey atleast we got our upgrade!

Re: Finally ALBANY!

i went in a live chat last night and asked if my area was in line for any kind of speed upgrade, and the tech told me that he didnt see any kind of information that said the utica area was in store for any kind of speed upgrade.

Yeah, like I said I can't think of many places that I can download from where I'll use that 15 down. It's totally not worth the extra money anymore.

Maybe if enough premium customers call and cancel they'll realize that there needs to be an upload increase.

if my area ever gets upgraded, im really hoping for a 1mb upload rate. it would be a huge jump from the measly 384 im stuck with now.

Re: Finally ALBANY!

Are you a former Adelphia customer? If so that probably explains it. In a normal situation Standard RR is 10/1 and RR Premium is 15/1. I don't know what to tell you those are the offical speeds for the franchise.
