    Grande Communications

    My DirecTV contract finally ended and AT&T could not offer me anything to keep me from switching over to Grande for TV with saving money and finally getting ESPN back and other channels. Direct TV is too expensive and more so if you do not bundle with AT&T Internet. Which not an option as we...

    Grande Communications

So after two neighbors switched to Grande I made the jump from AT&T 45 paying AT&T $60 a month to Grande paying $46 a month for 200/20 with unlimited data...

    TWC International channels

    I got a call from TWC in Dallas to try one of the Hindi packages for free for a few months. So I took the offer as my parents have them with Dish. I was shocked at the PQ of the channels on TWC the picture seems either squashed on some channels or stretched on others, and almost all of the...

    Cox Internet and TV

    I've noticed lately with Cox in our city that the installer only put a filter in place for TV if you have a sat dish on your property! Otherwise they tend to not place a filter on the line so you can get the free local channels on your TV with out needing the off air antenna.

    Any COX Ciities get an HD TV Guide

    An update it seems the 8642HDC DVR the newest DVR offered by Cox by Cisco had an HD guide. The only issue is the HD Guide doesn't fill the entire screen, but a good step forward. Also the older SA dvr boxes (some models) but those DVR boxes are pretty outdated.

I am on Cox and i have the Cisco HD box which is decent, but nothing compared to the Hopper system I had. The issue with Cox here is we don't even have an HD TV guide, and the Mpeg 2 HD offered the...

    Any COX Ciities get an HD TV Guide

    Cox service here in Gainesville FL our Cox TV Guide is in SD format which is a headache to look at on an HD TV. Any cities served by Cox have an HD TV Guide? I would imagine the big cities that Cox serves have an HD TV Guide?

    Latest converter box

    I got the newest HD box from COX (non DVR).. Cisco HD Plus model 4650HDC doesn't cost any more to add it to your account when swapping the older HD boxes out. The new box has an internet port which I haven't tried yet. The PQ seems better on the newest box The older box had a lot of snow, but...

    ZEE TV HD

    Watched it last night the PQ was amazing very colorful picture and very sharp. A good move by Asia TV to bring the Zee HD feed on Dish Network considering that Zee TV is the most watched international channel Dish offers! I wonder how long it will take Comcast, Time Warner, and Cox to add the...
