Time Warner Cable TV is totally down now in Palm Desert. The last time this happened it was in the middle of a Monday Night football game.

I wish we could get Verizon FiOS, but the Bighorn HOA keeps fighting it.

At least Internet works.....I fired up my Amazon Fire TV and am watching Homeland.

And I always have "RiverDavesPlace" for entertainment.


:D:D

Time Warner goes down maybe once a month. I used to manage WAN networks for educational companies. The last one I had we never went down for more than 5 seconds for 5 years.....

I've had them for 7 years now. First year was a nightmare. Cable always cutting out, Internet constantly going down. All of a sudden it all went away and has been fine since. Not sure what they did. My internet gets a little slow sometimes but other than that I can't complain much.

This is what keeps me from TW but may end up with them if Direct TV is not negotiable on my rate in a few weeks. I wish we got Fios or U-Verse in my area.

I can't fathom how anybody is happy with Cable TV.
Internet? Sure thing, but cable TV is like stone age whenever I have to stay at hotels for work (Like the past 40 days).
OMG it just sucks.

Maybe I just watch too much TV...???:D

If Comcast gets to purchase Time Warner expect the network to get some money pumped into it and not see those problems anymore. Their network is old they haven't had quite enough to to reinvest into it so hopefully the merger will help solve those problems.
