[quote=“ryanmcell,post:245,topic:28479"”] Anyone that has premier service what happened was the billing code for lite & premier are the same. So when everything updated it updated them with the wrong boot file. Thus giving a premier customer the lite boot file of 256 up/256 down. If your still having that prob, just send me your phone number and I can fix it. [/quote] thanks for the info! called them and had it changed immediately. now, all is back where it should be :tup: ---

[quote=“Rx3,post:253,topic:28479"”] Unfortunately, TW hasn’t pushed those speedrates out this way. I’m not sure if they just don’t want to because Adelphia had us on that slow shit and they just don’t want to bother. I was hoping that at some point during the takeover, our speeds would start matching the rest of the country (Time Warner-wise). [/quote] Only in FIOS areas, Adelphia was pushing 16 down 2 up in those areas. ---

Or you can sit there and bitch about it by doing nothing to try and fix it. ---
