White county cable television sells "high-speed" internet services from a company called Cablelynx. Cablelynx is a great company with great support, don't get me wrong. it all comes down to the Cable television company who owns the cabling through the city.

I've complained of dial-up speeds (Downloads 10kbps or less) over the past two months where i'm paying $55.00 per month ( this is the non-contract price, yearly committment price is $45.00 per month) for speeds that are comparable to 64k ISDN. My package calls for a maximum download rate of 3.0mbps. I've not seen the speeds.

After numerous calls to their support line, the ISP transferring me to their tier two support, three visits from a "tech" (first one was rather rude and insisted that we don't know anything about the service) the second being a hippy asking if I had any spare parts, promising to return the following day to do a drop so that I might get my purchased rates, the third, not even waiting for me to answer the door then leaving.

I am thoroughly unhappy with the quality of service we are recieving. White County Cable, Hire someone that knows what they're doing, and make sure that when they promise a service, that the customer gets it. Thank you.

White County Cable Television the third tech came back out two days later

AUTHOR: Courtney - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Tuesday, March 29, 2005

Ok, the third tech came back out two days later. He came armed with a CM500IP, a brand new cable modem, and a laptop computer attempting to prove to me that the problem is on my end. When he got dial-up speed out of his modem on his laptop he simply said "There's not really anything I can do for you, but there definitely is a problem." I have lost all respect for this provider. I am going go call the plant manager today, as he was supposed to contact me yesterday and never did. My modem will not hold a connection for more than 15 minutes at a time now. then I have to power cycle the modem and wait a half hour for it to range the propper frequencies and finally recieve it's configuration, then do it again in 15 minutes if i'm still interested in using my connection.
