really crappy network

... I'd like to think they've improved since 1999, but I had them briefly and recall not actually being able to make phone calls because 'all circuits were busy', and once going upstairs to my neighbors who had SBC, and making phone calls on their phone because it worked just fine. This happened more than once.

I have had RCN for almost two years and it destroys Comcast(which I had for about 4 years total in the past and uncountless years with its predecessor Prime Cable).
RCN might have sucked ten years ago when it first came to Chicago, but it is far superior to Comcast now.

What "RCN" stands for is irrelevent. I work in telecom and I don't even know, right off hand. They don't advertise whatever it stands for, so knowing won't help you get in touch with them. They're based in Virginia, but you'll find all of their contact info on their site.

Glad I could help out.

You said you were having a hard time contacting them. So I provided contact info. What the hell difference does it make what RCN stands for? Does not knowing somehow forestall you from picking up the phone and calling them? Or is it they'll only talk to you if you know what RCN stands for or otherwise they'll hang up on you?

Calling information and asking for rcn really doesn't get one anywhere. Tried 3 times. Hence why I needed the full name.
