New Cable Company

By cable, I mean Cable Internet access... I don't have cable but if I did I probably would have issues with that too! Anyway... Last Monday the company was supposed to switch me over to their new system. Well, it seems they had issues and were still working on it on Tuesday. So it still doesn't work when I get home on Tuesday after work, so I call them to let them know and they had to send a person out and they cannot get a person to come out till friday. Well on friday they gave me a 4 hour window when they will be here, 8-12. He came at 10ish so not to bad. Gets it fixed by removing a filter it works. Well okay it looked fine but I needed to go to work. I start playing some games with my friends to test it out. Well there are a couple of issues. One is the bandwidth is very very small this is because it is a community cable line and it depends on how many people are on it. Apparently they cannot do anything about it even though it says on their website is it is slow they will upgrade their equipment. So WTF I pay 2 dollars less and get like 5% of the speed!!!!!!!!! This is retarded! In addition to this my connection is frequently dropping out! I watch TV basically through the internet... if it drops out that suxs! even more the games I play with my friends will be dropped!

Anyway, I really need to look into what phone company they have here so I can look into getting DSL. BECAUSE THIS CABLE COMPANY SUXS!
