the RCA box isnt that bad if its the one that has the builtin wireless (really small black box with a grey top and one or two antennas) the older rca is garbage and out of date. i actually forgot about that one…if you have that one have them swap it out.

also complaining enough will get you eventually rewired and a few months free of service. i think it took us about 7 calls in before they rewired, and credited the account for 6 months. (both digital cable and RR)

those were crap and not uncapped. download speeds were good then because that was when more people were still using dialup. the best TW boxes are the Toshiba PCX series.

Wrong! do not pass go, do not collect $200 dollars.  
TW has never had an uncapped box, unless you hacked the box yourself. if they did, me and george would have had the boxes. his uncle is a tech. we used to bug him all the time about that shit.

to hack the box and uncap it?

if so then yes, but TW can tell now if more bandwidth then should be allotted is being used and they’ll be making there way to your door to check things out.

thats why they offer like 5 or 6 different RR packages. i think the fastest one is the “turbo” package.
