| High latency The high latency issues you speak of was not the first time this has happened. I can recall 2 other instances for part of the NC region and sadly, i'm done with them. I'm switching this week to DSL. I have no other broadband alternative here in Hickory, NC. | |

| Re: Update Yeah I called them to cancel because I recently went with the "edge" from knology. But as I was going to get off the phone with them, they explained that they were soft launching in the area. So as we speak I am running 10 mbps download and 1 mbps upload. It is great. What a surprise. | |

| what a customer Sir you are picky huh,I have charter also and i am in western n.c i had no ping problem at all and 2.4 meg dsl is great as per it is due to the loop feed away from your ceo.Also any high speed connection is a best effort service.the one thing though i get 5.0/512 speeds for 24.95 a month do you think you can get that price | |

| charter prices I heard that in the near future charter's coming out with 10mb/s downloads, so the 3mbps and 5mbps packages should go down in price.
I'v got charter as well in Taylors (right next to greer) that I got hooked up over a month ago, and it's been quite good this time around.I'm on a $20/month plan for the first six months then it goes up to the regular price of $42.99 or something like that, but what stinks is I get charged an extra $10 b/c I don't have any other of their services (cable, phone, etc.). I also had to pay one of those %49.99 first time fees for them to "hook up" the house for the first time. I hate junk charges like that, but what are you gonna do?
I also did the broadbandoffers.com free modem thing. got to me super fast and have sent in my rebates...time will tell if I get my money back.. | |
