I'm having an issue with cable modem today and was wondering if the cause is more likely something with the line or the modem itself. I saw similar behavior...

... Well, then the instructions on the Web page are poor, as there is no indication that it is on a second level menu. Yes, such an item is there; but, when I...
... Thanks for the update. I wish TW would allow us to turn this "feature" off. Not only does the warning interrupt what is being watched, it prevents hearing...
... The whole screen goes red with a message telling me to switch to channel 44 and the audio is replaced with loud static. Not only does this completely...
... So, if these two new channels are SDV -- switched digital video -- does this mean that TWC's switched video system is now in place and they can start...
... Do the QAM channels move around on SDV, or do they just switch on and off? If the later, it seems like they could populate the maps and as long as a box in...
Sure hope so. Voom would be nice too. They have 9 blank channels in the 1700 range they sure could use. ... the ... does this mean that TWC's ... more HD...
... This is not what I experienced. I got a red bar at the top of the screen displaying written information in a series of about 4 'frames', the last two of...
Could the TEST1, TEST2 and TEST3 listed in the guide at 1597-1599 be new channels on the way? I've never noticed them before, but then again I've never really...
... The former is more nearly correct but still confused. One QAM carrier will carry the data streams for many digital SD channels. For unswitched channels,...
... So I could program an infrared transmitter to continuously rotate through all of the channels to skew the usage statistics and prevent further SDV rollout?...
Those channels in the 1700s are actually the analog versions of the local broadcasters, so to use those you would have to kill analog KTBC, KNVA, KEYE, etc.. ...
... If I am going to be forced to rent a box for $6/mo (more than two cablecards cost, not even counting the sports pak charge) to watch a couple sports...
And this would serve what purpose? To stop the rollout of switched video, guess you guys don't want any new channels deployed and are satisified with the...
Having presented an excellent summary of the means by which cable operators can address current bandwidth limitations and how this relates to SDV, on Saturday,...
How long have you had it and what is your degree of satisfaction with it? The reason I ask is that I was told some modems - Toshiba for example - will not...
A very good summary, there is one you missed though: 4. Compress video with MPEG4 instead of MPEG2. Scientific Atlanta's next generation of cable boxes can...
A year or so ago my trusty Toshiba (not sure which model) started being very slow, so I called tech support. They said that it had 90% packet loss and...
They're thinking SALES, of local 30-second spots, obviously, and the viewer be damned. Oh well, what else is new? So, Friday night, with a new Law & Order...
Yes messed with my DVR as well. I was trying to get Las Vegas... turns out it ran about 4:30 am and thankfully it had the new episode flag set, so the DVR got...
... My response was tongue-in-cheek. I don't feel any power to stop SDV rollout. At CES this week, there are quite a few announcements of new CableCARD ...
This is only the second mention of the speed up that I've seen. Has there been an announcement that Austin will get this? If so, when? For what it's worth,...
I know they have been doing some testing of the download throughput increase in Cedar Park prior to implementing it area wide, but I am not privy to any ...
I was just going to come here and post this. Some of the channels are: - A&E - National Geographic - Bravo - NFL Network - Cartoon Network - SciFi Channel -...
Last night, I fell asleep in the living room reading while my wife had fallen asleep in front of the TV set. When I came back into the room with the TV, the...
