| GWI's contact page clearly says... "For your convenience, you can now submit a ticket with our Technical Support Teams for non-urgent issues." »www.gwi.net/support/contact.html
You need to call GWI up if you have an immediate issue with your service. If you can't hear then you need to find somebody who can assist you. I fail to see how GWI is unique in this regard because Time Warner and Fairpoint would expect the same. Unlike these two mega companies that don't know if they're on foot or horseback, GWI might actually fix the problem if you communicate the issue to them.
My parents had a problem with inbound calls when they were hooked up to GWI's phone service, because Verizon did not tell GWI that the switch had been made (huge surprise there.) I think Verizon/Fairpoint is likely doing this on purpose to make sure customers who bail from the mothership are given a bad initial experience with GWI's phone service.
As for the modem, why do you need to get into it? Put your own router behind it and it works just like it's supposed to, like a dumb modem. | |

| Re: GWI's contact page clearly says... No I don't work there, but I have been a customer since 2004. You can say whatever you want in an email, but the fact remains a phone call is probably going to put you at the front of the line, especially during weekends and after hours. I think this is the case with about 95% of the businesses out there.
I've found Time Warner cannot fix anything without sending a tech to the house (and thus proving it's really their problem, not mine), because the people on the phone are total idiots and assume their customers are idiots as well.
I'm glad to see GWI fixed your issue and you updated your review. | |
