Last Monday I had Wide Open West<\/a> CATV and internet service installed. The installer was a nice guy, did just what I wanted, and did a good job putting the new junction box on the outside of the house. As requested he left the Comcast line going into the house, replaced the old splitter, and let me take care of the data side of things (very basic to set up; no Comcastic walled garden<\/a> crap), and had an MCard<\/a> for the TiVo.<\/p>\n

The only problem I had is that he wasn’t familiar with setting up TiVos and forgot to check for reception of HD channels. A phone call to WOW! service after he left got those turned on and everything was set.<\/p>\n

Thus far I’ve been mostly happy with the data service. Tests at DSLReports.com<\/a> have shown that I can achieve the claimed 15Mbps downstream and 2Mbps upstream quite regularly. Everything has been much faster in real use as well, and uploads to my photo gallery<\/a> are far, far faster now.<\/p>\n

I intend to write up a more technical description of how I like the service, including how I intend to use the three IPs (DHCP assigned) that I’m allocated as part of the service, but that will have to come later. For now I’ve got some other projects to wrap up.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
