Got Time Warner internet installed today and has old phone number ported to new service. After one day, so far so good. Will see how it goes month after month. Here's the high/low lights....

Last check with Verizon was going good with a new modem, it was 500K download and 1.2M upload. (Yes, that's what it was -- not the other way around as I would have expected.) DSL and no-frills phone was $115/month including taxes, fees, etc.

Now with TWC, upload is 1M and download is 2M. Internet and phone is $37/month including taxes, etc.

All the calls to Verizon when phone was out over the past 2 months added $140 to my regular AT&T cell phone bill, but AT&T ended up applying a credit for most of that for being a 10+ year customer -- and for my good looks, of course. AT&T has been a first rate cell phone company and affordable - $50/month for 450 anytime minutes for 2 phones. Just don't go over that limit or it's 45-cents a minute (if you're not good looking like me. ;O)

Last email to Verizon was a demand for $800+ to cover all the outages and extra costs. I already got $200 credit, but even $800 is a drop in the bucket toward what the real cost was to me in lost time and business.

Will keep you guys posted.

Hi,
How could you stream movie or real time HD media stuff with 2/1 speed?
Up here I have two phones with separate numbers one for voice,
one for fax with distinctive ring, all available TV channels, and 50/3
Internet with no limit. Costs 195.00 CAD/month. Even DSL hook up from
Telus works at higher speed than 2/1 with TV and phone service. Mobile
phone is with Telus GSM smart phones. Pay as you go, costs ~10.00CAD.
