Ya, but this RC doesn't support it. TWC did that on purpose.

FYI, they made fun of Time Warner Cable (TWC) with that logo. See http://www.dslreports.com/forum/r28708070- for the details especially http://www.dslreports.com/forum/r28710072- ...

I only have cable for its Internet since that is the only broadband and cheapest available in my cities (no DSL and FIOS even in my neighborhoods).

When I got my 14.4 US Robotics modem, I dialed into their bulletin board that they advertised on the underside of their modem. I thought it was very interesting. My mom not so much when the phone bill came in and she demanded to know who was calling a California phone number for 2 hours.


Yeah, it sounds like when was I was a newbie during my teenage days. I didn't know same area codes does not always mean local calls.

I still use my dial-up modem as a backup ($9.95 per month for ten hours a month, but it gives me Giganews with it!) once in a while when my cable modem goes down (stupid TWC RR, Adelphia, and @Home).

The thing is, to get 50 megabits in Japan costs the equivalent of only $30 a month.

$30 a month in DSL from my provider (a middleman provider between Verizon and I that charges maybe $5 a month extra for unlimited bandwidth + more) gives you a 1 megabit connection!

$25 a month for a 1 megabit connection is bullshit. It's utter garbage.

I live in a city in California between Santa Barbara and LA where Verizon and Time Warner Cable have both rolled out fiber. But the cost for FIOS is ridiculous, and gets you only 5 megabits to start.

TWC offers a 10 megabit line for $40-some a month, but is interested in metered bandwidth. That's unacceptable, and I refuse to support it.

The low end broadband speeds haven't changed in 10 years or so. There shouldn't even be a .766 megabit option available at all.

I understand that there's an infrastructure problem with doing this, and that these companies need to recover their losses. Thus, they want to keep shitty DSL and whatever speed $30 solutions available.

But someday the low end options need to be upgraded. 5 megabits should cost $20 a month.

Nevermind. It looks like TWC RR is having problems (http://www.dslreports.com/forum/r19335830-Fiber-Broken-Affecting-Roadrunner-Highspeed-Most-of-SOCAL ) and now seems faster:

I didn't see any reference to the TWC or 9/11, unless you're referring to the firefighters, and the Statue of Liberty has always been a symbol for freedom and the United States.

All you had to do was read the posted title and you should already know his angle, it is hardly a "cheap shot". You are entitled to your opinion.
