| I don't understand...Comcast is pretty much Time Warner...same thing. I have Road Runner Turbo Boost, and can only hold 16. When I had Comcast, could only hold 16??? I'm so ready to leave and get a crib and get fios. ~Goodz~_________________ "That's exactly what you have... thanks, but no thanks.

| I got Comcast Blast... they said it was perfect for gaming? So I'm not sure. It's expensive though... a lot more than AT&T. _________________ "Don't play games with a girl who can play better"  |

| LOL poor muff, of coarse they're gonna say that silly goose. yeah our ISP's are crappy, doesn't really motivate a buyer....however you can do what i did, like Jay i was about to switch over to fios. but changed my mind when those DNS numbers came out and got online and read some reviews about them, they had just as much complaints against them as TW. Only bring this up as a point that you don't have to take their word for it you can read the reviews at google, i specifically looked up TimeWarner complaints, yada yada yada. you get the point.
one last thing about the wet wire thing.... before i forget again that is.... most of the time they won't solve any issues inside your walls for free.....meaning if there is any validity to that claim that you have some form of short in your wires either due to water or erosion of any kind they will, like i said most of the time charge ya for it..... this is easy to troubleshoot as far as do you have a static or buzzing while you're on the phone is a good indication that there is a problem. sometimes it could be that your phone box isn't or has lost it' ground inside the box. |

| <-- is a girl and isn't really trying to mess with any wires....
Jay I read that with cable internet sometime your connection speed is determined by how many people have cable in your area?? Not sure if there's any truth to this. _________________ "Don't play games with a girl who can play better"  |

| I also read something about opening up ports to increase speed like for hosting, but I don't know how true that is. That's when it starts getting too tech for me.

| If you're playing online...I would recommend you staying wired. 99% of the people I know that are wireless..have a problem staying online, and have numerous problems with network errors.

| I was trying to think of a way to get online at these people's house where I'm staying. Since they live in the dark ages and have neither a TV nor the internet. I have to bring my 22in flat screen and my ps3 with me just to watch movies and play games. Crazy eh? _________________ "Don't play games with a girl who can play better"  |

| Damn jay it ain't her fault....
and the ports thing doesn't really work unfortunately but if anyone wants them it got not only the numbers but if you happen to have a linksys router i can help ya out quite abit...
and back to that other thing about having alot of people around you with cable, i think it's very much true...for instance one of my son's friends parents who happens to have a ps3 with the exact same TW internet phone/cable/packet that i do can host 32 player games.... is that nuts or what??? the difference being that the population where i am is much more dense than where he lives....TW says officially that there isn't any difference however unofficially i got one of their troubleshooters to almost possibly agree to my assumption, but he could neither confirm nor deny it, yet he agreed with my theory or stated that it was plausible..... |

| TW told me over a year ago they was going to have a stronger package than the RW Turbo Boost come out.. I'm still waiting.... The port thing always sounded suspect to me...it's all about your upload/download speed. ~Goodz~_________________ "That's exactly what you have... thanks, but no thanks.
