    tried charters boxes

    I recently switched from DirecTV to Charter (because I got an incredible deal) as a step-down transition to cord cutting. I'm glad there's no contract with Charter... because after three months on their terrible DVR, I'm done. I hadn't used the system much over the summer, so it didn't really...

    Charter Bumps 30 Mbps Customers to 100 Mbps, For Free

    My experience differs slightly. I am an Internet-only 30meg customer, and have been for about 3 years. After reading some Internet rumblings last week, I reset my modem, and poof - up to 100. No price increase, no new plan, no change in service, no new modem or commitment.

    Review: AT&T U-VERSE

    I learned today they're getting ready to roll out U-Verse in my area. I'm very, very interested -- but am concerned about the "freezing" issues that were mentioned in the initial review and in this last post. Have they gotten any better?

    DVR: DishNetwork or DirecTV or ??? + other questions...

    I have the 522DVR. The box is upstairs on my main TV, and I use a Harmony remote (IR) with that. "TV2" is downstairs, and the RF remote works great. The range is so good, right after we had it installed we we picking up signals from our neighbor's system. It's very easy to change the RF address...
