We have Comcast.. and I just checked.. the one cable only(no box) tv goes up to channel 77
The main tv has a DVR.
I've had all three majors(Time Warner, Dish, Comcast) in the past several years.
I have to say Comcast has been the best as far as service is concerned. (and that's not saying much)
They are all overpriced.
We just recently dropped HBO and other movie channels in favor of upping the broadband to a 10Mb connection (ooh baby I love it)
And added a home phone line when we made that change. They came out and switched out the modem.
The one thing that really bites is that now I can no longer spoof my MAC address. Which is how I used to be able to change my IP whenever I wanted.
I'm still trying to figure out how to get back to having a spoofable MAC.
Honestly though we hardly even use the cable tv connection since I can download all the TV shows I'm interested in. (Including MotoGP in HD
)
About every 6 months I call up and complain to them about the cost and they readjust the monthly fee to the 6 month introductory price.
Other than price my primary complaint about them is the fact that I HAVE to press 1 for english whenever I call them.
Unlike other systems where I refuse to press a button for english and just wait until it rolls to an operator. Their system just loops
and pressing 0 etc doesn't bypass that frekin option.
