I'm in move mode now. I'm trying to finish getting out of my
old place here in Columbia by the time the weekend is over. Am
supposed to be getting my household affairs in order in Sylva this
week. I've already got my cablemodem installed and my VOIP phone for
the rental house in Sylva. I've got to load my home network into the
car and transport it up there before I can get fully wired there.
As soon as I get settled, I'll try to arrange a time to stop
by. Will be in touch and I'm very much looking forward to meeting you
and your folks.
That link you gave me looks promising. A dollar a week to
monitor the reliability of your connection isn't bad at all. I wish I
had had reports of this nature for Time-Warner. We've had two
catastrophic outages down there this week alone. The first time, they
refused to take a trouble from me on it because the cablemodem service
is listed in my landlady's name saying that she'd have to call it in.
Isn't that ridiculous? But, I'm stopping by their office tomorrow to
drop off the cablemodem. The only thing is that my father will still
be using their service here in this area and he is using Vonage for
his telephone service. Maybe I'll arrange for these folks to monitor
his connection, too.
Hopefully, Mediacom will be better for me. I've heard some
say not so. But to be truthful, my first impressions and experiences
with them have been much more positive than my interactions with
Time-Warner. Mediacom seems to know what they're doing and the couple
of minor issues I've had they've addressed very quickly. When I
squawked because I was getting a private dynamic IP address (in the 10
range) from their DHCP server, they upgraded me to a public IP address
rather quickly. My Voicepulse phone didn't work with the private one.
When they upgraded it, the phone started working.
Regards,
Fred
