Re: Colorado Springs, CO Upgrade
The end of the year? They really need to make that more clear in the email, it doesn't indicate that at all. I don't mind waiting, maybe they shouldn't have put a date in the email, because I know people are going to expect a lot come next Wed, and I really don't want to be tech support when the calls come in complaining about no upgrades. I will be patient, as I understand these things, but you know as well as I that most people will just get mad and take it out on the poor, innocent techs who had nothing to do with it.

Let me explain.
The E Mail says that the company will be increasing speeds. To facilitate that there are upgrades to the Network. These Upgrades "TO THE NETWORK" will be finished by the 15th October. It does NOT say that all areas will have increased speeds by that date.
Speeds will be adjusted for existing customers on an area basis and could take to the end of the year.
Thank you for taking the time to read this.

I'm not, just reporting what the email said  I read it as saying that all upgrades will be done by next Wed, barring any problems or unforseen circumstances (I added that part), which I know as a tech can happen at any time.
" We were pleased to announce last week that we will be increasing the speeds available to our Power Link high-speed internet customers to up to 3 megabytes-per-second downloads and up to 256 kilobytes-per-second uploads....
To facilitate this exciting change for Power Link customers, there are some upgrades required in the Adelphia network....We expect to have the network upgrades complete by October 15, 2003" Sure sounds like I read it right, but if I have, I am open to corrections

"will all be upgraded to 3000/256 by next Wed"
You will be moved to the new platform...I agree. I may not agree that you will have the new speeds by then, much like others have moved but are not yet seeing the increase in upload. Please do not jump the gun.

Colorado, along with us here in Nor Cal, as well as Idaho, Washington, Montana and Arizona (AKA the Western Region to Adelphia) will all be upgraded to 3000/256 by next Wed, we're the last region to get the 256 upload upgrade. We are also still running at 3000/128 here in Nor Cal.
