    Had Charter basic installed today. Question about instal.

    I see. I'm going to assume that if I tamper with that, they'd find out pretty quick and I'd end up in some sort of trouble.

    Had Charter basic installed today. Question about instal.

    What's a "trap", and is there a way to remove it?

    Had Charter basic installed today. Question about instal.

    I already had internet through Charter. I was at work during the instal, and had my girlfriend here to sign off on it. When I got home to check it out, I noticed that the tech took out the old wall plate, and now there's a dual female coax plate. The bottom one runs to the input of a three...

    Goodbye Charlie... (OFFICIAL I am Leaving DISH Thread)

    I canceled my service a few days ago. Previously I was living with two other people, so paying 1/3 of the bill wasn't a big deal. Now I've got my own place. I can't justify spending $116 a month to watch tv shows. I thought about downgrading, but even at $50 or so, I'd be missing out on a...

    Simulating "jump back" after Fast Forwarding

    I find it much easier to just hit the skip forward button a few times, and when I see my show I skip back once or twice.

    Local channels from different city!

    Is it really that simple? I live in an area with no HD locals, and I want them. I don't care from what area. What happens if Dish finds out, like if I need a tech to come to my house and he uses the new address?

    I'm done with Dish, best way to cancel?

    Im not happy about the recent drop of Disney and ESPNEWS HD, the $17 fee for an extra 722, and still not having HD networks, despite Direct TV having them here. A new roommate is moving in who already has a contract with Direct TV, so I want to get rid of Dish. But I know they can hit you...

    Is there anything I can do to lower my bill?

    Yes I have two 722's. We don't have a home phone anymore, we just use our cells. And we're pretty happy with Charter for our internet, just not for cable.

    So I finally have access to Fox, ABC, CBS, and NBC through Eureka (I live in Crescent City), but they're not in HD. Guess I'll be waiting even longer than I hoped. I don't care if the networks are local or not, I just want to HAVE the networks in HD.
