Make sure you include in your presentation the new crappy Mystro software they are moving to as they are dumping Passport and SARA. It sucks right now, but I am hopeful some updates in the future could tweak its look and feel. Runs on the new cable card equipped OCAP boxes.

The brand new OCAP HD 4250HDC has HDMI output without having to have the DVR. It is one of the new boxes with the cable cards in them using the new Mystro software. That is the only non-dvr with HDMI.

I agree. There is zero hope for Tivo software for TWC. With the move to SDV and other services which require Mystro OCAP software, and the money already spent to develop it, it is very unlikely. Get the new Tivo S3 "lite" unit that I heard they are going to make and get you some cable cards and...

If it is the new Mystro Navigator software that looks like it was designed by Atari in the 1980's, get used to it. That is what all divisions are moving to. It is the crap software that was developed in-house by TW. It is completely worthless and totally underdeveloped. It is also OCAP based...

SBG Rant Coming Right Up! Just another example of the greedy bastards at Sinclair holding consumers hostage. I hope Mediacom gives them the bird and cuts it. But unfortunatley, SBG is linking 22 Sinclair controlled stations across multiple markets for ransom. There will be a deal at the last...

Those frequencies are for your specific system. Not all TWC systems run RR on those frequencies. Mine is 35 to 55mhz ranged on return and 651 down. Another one I have seen uses 621 down. Not huge differences there, but 711 to 651 certainly is in this case. Also, remember, the OP I believe is...

It will be some time before Adelphia systems are converted to the TWC billing/control system. That system is complicated in my opinion. And until then, TWC does not have simple control of the boxes, authorization, billing, etc. of Adelphia systems. Remember, they are running TWO separate, and...

Comcast can and should give up exclusive Philly sports channels when DirecTV gives up exclusive Sunday Ticket programming. Until then, the FCC can shove any proposal that would stick it to Comcast. And DirecTV can cry about it all day long.

I do not have all the details, but it looks like TWC is going to drag this transition out all the way to the end of October. It really does appear that they are going to take their time with this one. I will post more when I find out.

Most likely about 2 to 3 channels every week, or every other week. I think once they know a certain QAM is working well, they may add all the channels at once on that QAM. I am not 100% sure on that one. I did find the channels in simulcast, channels 25 (Education) and 71 (BBC).

The channels in the 800's on the Cols, OH system are for the Family Tier package. That is it. The transistion for all of the analog channels started last week. They launched 2 channels last week for the simulcast. Unfortunately, I am not sure which ones, although they are not major channels...

Last I heard was that the units were not working well in testing. I do not know if that is true. My thought would be they are holding off on these to see the outcome of the Cablevision network DVR that they are testing. If that proves to work well, and they clear all the legal stuff the...

Dude, chill. I am in no way arguing with anyone. Just putting my two cents in. As far as backup power goes, a large percentage of customers who are new to VoIP and get cable phone, regardless of provider, are not going to know or be comfortable with configuring a UPS for their equipment. That...

Keep in mind that TWC will install the phone modem for you and make sure that it is properly connected to existing lines in the house. With Vonage, for example, you are all on your own to set it up and connect it into your house line if you choose. Sure, it is not difficult in most cases, but I...

Tony, Love the maps, very cool. RIRWIN, I looked up your area.. You are smack dab between TWC areas. North of 161 and the south side of Morse Rd are TWC. And they also have Minerva Park just east of Cleveland Ave and west of Rt 3. You are in a tiny spot surrounded by them. Sorry man.

Sounds like you are right on the border line. Only in a select area, very small, Livingston Ave area, south of Whitehall, does TWC overlap with Insight and WOW. If you are in Gahanna and have Insight, forget it. It is a franchising issue, and TWC does not overbuild with Insight in that area...

It will only help your signal reliability if it is low. If you have decent signal and it works now, RG11 will not improve speed/pings.

I have service here and have been dealing with this for years. Sinclair owns both the ABC and FOX affils in Columbus. If you visit Sinclair's site, they harp on free HD for everyone.. Then why do they want money for it? They say that cable makes money on Sinclair's HD services.. I will not...

Zax, I know it is pain in the rear, but you need to make cust service get someone out to check your cable. I know they started simulcasting the analog in digital. Most likely there is something blocking the frequencies that the digital simulcast channels are one. You may have never had a...

While competition for cable is all good, that is one less advantage that satellite can pitch to the consumer in these service areas. And it looks much better on a big screen. :)

Thanks for the pics, Jet and Korsjs. That equip looks pretty cool and I bet pretty pricey. :) I am sure they would get that back should you ever cancel service.

korsjs, Can you show us some more pictures of the installation? Like your outside box and connections? This stuff is really cool! I am happy you allowed us to see a complete installation. I was always wondering exactly how it was going to be setup.
