"Very reliable. Good speed. It just works."
"Speed and services are beat by FiOS, but cable is our only option other than DSL. FiOS not available yet."
"Needed to upgrade my cable modem to get full speed. It took them a week."

(ratings match consensus)

    I was only getting 4 Mbps down. Up was fine. Rather than go through the headaches with support people on the phone I picked up my own Motorola SB5101 modem to use with my RR service.

    This, of course, required me to call in and have the new modem (HFC MAC address) provisioned. I was told three business days. Three days later I called in and it was still not provisioned. I was told it would be ready by the weekend. It wasn't. I called back on Monday, six days later and it was still not ready.

    Tech 1 transferred me to tech 2 who said it wasn't ready and that it would take a few more days and probably be ready "some time this week". I said this was unacceptable and demanded to speak to a supervisor.

    The supervisor came on the line after a wait and was able to put the request through immediately.

    The result - I now get over 9 Mbps down (same 512 Kbps up).

    Sometimes the squeaky wheel gets the grease.
