SinisterSS Posted December 18, 2013 Report Share Posted December 18, 2013 my provider is Time Warner, I have 2 HD DVR boxes, the fastest internet they offer and pretty much basic cable with 0 movie channels(they call it the starter TV/Standard TV/HD PAK) and I pay $169.19 a month. I've been with Insight since 2004 until Time Warner bought them out recently(Bill went up $2.00 when that happened), so basicly I've been with the same company for 10 years this month and I still get NO breaks on rates.

HotCarl Posted December 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2013 DirectTV- over 500 HD channels- $49.99 per month UVerse internet (16MPS)- $39.99 per month. $94 out the door for both. I have every channel you can dream of, on 4 TV's. Trust me I've thought about this but my Apartment faces the wrong direction (north I believe) and my complex wont let them install a satellite dish on the roof or on the deck.

Holy shit dude. I'd start looking elsewhere. That's crazy. I have whole home DVR for my price too and can record up to 5 shows at once and over 500 hours of space.

HotCarl Posted December 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 24, 2013 That's not a thing. http://usatoday30.usatoday.com/tech/products/story/2012-04-29/pegoraro-rooftop-antenna/54582432/1 wow I had no idea. My brother lived in this apartment before I took over the lease and he said he attempted to get dish network but was told that his apartment faces the wrong direction and that they would have to mount the dish either on a big pole on his deck or on the roof which was a no-go. Not sure how expensive installation like that would be either or if i would want to spend that much. thanks for the heads up though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thorne Posted December 25, 2013 Report Share Posted December 25, 2013 I currently use Wide Open West, I've been very happy with there internet service, Youtube works like a charm and I can pull 50MB down off astraweb. http://www.speedtest.net/result/3186114231.png 70$ a month and I've had the same IP since I moved in.

TurboTank Posted December 25, 2013 Report Share Posted December 25, 2013 That's not a thing. http://usatoday30.usatoday.com/tech/products/story/2012-04-29/pegoraro-rooftop-antenna/54582432/1 that holds no ground if its stated in the lease. just went through it. dtv even had their legal staff involved. and they had to terminate the contract and come pick up there equipment.. the only way i see possible is a giant suction cup to the second floor window glass lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thorne Posted December 25, 2013 Report Share Posted December 25, 2013 FWIW, WOW's router is a piece of crap and gets real shoddy with more than 4 devices connected between wifi and cat-5. Make sure you have your own (you should with any ISP, but hey we're all broke, right?). I may be an outlier, and this may be an isolated incident though, I never called them, just got my own. I got on board with them spring last year. Other than that, I'll +1 for WOW. REally? Are you on Docsis 3.0? because I've got there router and haven't had any issues with it besides ever couple months the wifi acting stupid quick reboot and back to normal.

SinisterSS Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 Holy shit dude. I'd start looking elsewhere. That's crazy. I have whole home DVR for my price too and can record up to 5 shows at once and over 500 hours of space. Just got my new cable bill, its now $175.64! I looked on their site and they have a package deal which includes: Turbo internet, HD TV package 2 HD DVR boxes you get all the movie channels and they're giving you a free tablet for $119 a month for 1 year. I'm calling today to cancel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I have their DOCSIS 3 modem/router combo and its been rock solid. I haven't even had to reboot it once, and service has only gone down when they told us it was going to. http://www.speedtest.net/result/3236209371.png Edited January 16, 2014 by Rally Pat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShoMeSomeFun Posted January 17, 2014 Report Share Posted January 17, 2014 I have Time Warner and the the only reason I have it is for the the tenants that live in my house while Im abroad. I got two DVRs, cable and their slowest internet package for 109 w/tax per month. Ill be getting rid of them when I get back, and just get WOWs best internet. For sporting games Ill either stream them or go to a bar or friends house. I will miss ESPN, but after being overseas so long I just stream all their live shows off their website, albeit its recorded with just voice, but it works.
