Time Warner Cable Sucks!

Every night my internet speed is down to 1MB to 3MB only, I don't use a router and I only have the Time Warner Cable speed test on when I do this test. I did a test and only had 1.96MB download speed when I should have about 10MB. I've complained about the slow speed before and they told me it's fixed after a few weeks but look! Today's test is on 8/26/2009 about 10 PM. The result is 2.49MBPS download speed, slow!!! Time Warner Cable sucks, avoid them at all cost. I have no choice because they are the only provider here.

My download speed went down to 0.3 every night, I called them many times and they don't want to give me refund but also can't fix the problem. I found a 4g network and canceled WTC, the 4g gives me 6-12mb but has higher latency, hey at least I finally feel like I have a working internet now.

2 of my friends live in Queens NY also canceled their WTC recently due to the same problem.

I have clearwire and get 0.50 in download speed and 0.30 on upload speed. When you get something slower than that, then come back and bitch about it.

@rj0883

Oh yes, I did. I had 0.3mb download after I UPGRADED to Road Runner TUBRO. Come back when you beat that speed, lol

my internet has never gone below 40 and I have the Wideband 50mb/s

[totopelon1]

mi internet is 500 kb/s so stop crying!!!!

even if you get 2.5Mbps at night your netflix or youtube videos will run like shit. I moved from 5Mbps dsl which ran the majority of the time at 1.2Mbps all day to Time warner which basically runs like my old broadband provider. These companies keep adding new customers but never upgrade their infrastructure so in the beginning for new customers they will get about 13Mbps for only one week then everything goes to shit. That's what they did to me and friends who have twc.

Stay away from cable unless you are planning on getting the 50/5 for $90 a month wideband from timewarner. If you get the 50mbps you will lose about 30Mbps but atleast you will have 20Mbps at night. If you get 15Mbps like me you will get 1.5 -2.2 Mbps starting from 4:00pm till next day i guess 5:00am in the morning. Cable companies get government subsidies and still won't upgrade their hardware or add more cable lines around cities to support the extra bandwidth.

Time Warner is a waste of money
