I have searched the threads and it appears there are a lot of technical issues with Time Warner- is this still the case? I have had FIOS for about 4yrs and can only think of *once* when the server had issues. What kind of issues have others experienced with AT&T- it seems that installation casues a major headache...
We've had TW for eight years. The only problem I have is that my internet goes out every single time the phone rings. Other than that, we've been happy with it.

You'll want to read Ani's thread about U-verse from last month.

The last time that I heard frm her, that's what she said. Major problems getting online when that's essential for her business is not good. She probably should be the poster child for not getting U-Verse.
In my opinion, U-Verse is a half-cocked scheme to do a cheap version of FiOS. I'm saying that because, as a broadcast tech, I was dealing with a fiber-optic test that Verizon was trying in the early 90s. All fiber-optic is near flawless. Part fiber-optic adds a lot of variables & I wouldn't touch it with a 10 foot pole. You might get lucky, but if not. . .
That said, I currently have Time Warner. The 1st year it was flawless. Like magic, when that year was up, it's been constant problems. Much as I hate AT&T, I am giving serious thought to dropping Time Warner completely & just getting DSL from AT&T. I would prefer WindStream, but they tell me that the FCC prevents them from coming into an AT&T area.

That seems really strange. Has TWC made any attempt to fix it?
Sorry to hear that. Maybe DSL would work better for you?
