Adelphia - Is it working now?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,8255428 Fri, 17 Oct 2003 13:35:25 EDT Re: Colorado Springs, CO Upgrade http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,8255387 Brendan : I upgraded to the Premier package last night. I'm getting 3000/512 (that's without TCP/IP overhead.) i hope they fix the download speeds soon! I'm not getting the 5000 down that I'm paying for! However, I am very pleased with upload performance. Everything seems much faster, overall, after the upgrade. Even without the download increase, it's worth the $79 a month.

Date Time Details
2003-10-14 01:37:02-0 @sys WAN(DHCP) IP is 68.64.x.x

I downloaded the config off the modem to see if any caps had been changed; the speeds are still set at 3000000/128000.

For those with Motorola modems and who want to see the config:

1) Go to »192.168.100.1/logs.html and copy the name of the modem's config

2) Go to »192.168.100.1/address.html and note the DHCP server address

3) At a command prompt, type tftp DHCP_server_address GET your_modem's_config_name c:\motorola.cfg

Open the config with a utility such as ConfigEdit.

If that's not what they mean, they need to be a little less cryptic.

The E Mail says that the company will be increasing speeds. To facilitate that there are upgrades to the Network. These Upgrades "TO THE NETWORK" will be finished by the 15th October. It does NOT say that all areas will have increased speeds by that date.

Speeds will be adjusted for existing customers on an area basis and could take to the end of the year.

Thank you for taking the time to read this.

I wouldn't recommend getting the 4000/512. I don't know anyone in Colorado with Powerlink that averages over 2500 down. So even with the new caps, you'll still get the same service. However, if you are hitting 3000 consistently, go for the 4000 pack :)
Isn't this the purpose of the tier upgrade??

That's good to hear...been waiting on my line to be provisioned for 4000/512. Soon....very very soon...:)


I wouldn't recommend getting the 4000/512. I don't know anyone in Colorado with Powerlink that averages over 2500 down. So even with the new caps, you'll still get the same service. However, if you are hitting 3000 consistently, go for the 4000 pack :)

Could this be from the upcoming upgrades? ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,8168011 Tue, 07 Oct 2003 17:24:44 EDT Re: Colorado Springs, CO Upgrade http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,8167714 sp0rk : Typo in email they sent us?

3 megabytes-per-second downloads?
256 kilobytes-per-second uploads?

Shouldn't it be megabits & kilobits?

DLing at 3 megs a second would be cool though ;)]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,8167714 Tue, 07 Oct 2003 16:47:52 EDT Re: Colorado Springs, CO Upgrade http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,8167468 wukilla : That's good to hear...been waiting on my line to be provisioned for 4000/512.

Dear Adelphia Power Link Customer,

We value your business and understand that many of you have an increasing appetite for online content, email and all the benefits of our high-speed internet service. We were pleased to announce last week that we will be increasing the speeds available to our Power Link high-speed internet customers to up to 3 megabytes-per-second downloads and up to 256 kilobytes-per-second uploads. Your Power Link pricing will not change as a result of this service enhancement!

To facilitate this exciting change for Power Link customers, there are some upgrades required in the Adelphia network. While we do not expect these changes to have an impact to the vast majority of customers, some customers may be impacted. If you are impacted, you may experience higher than normal wait times on the Technical Support line. We apologize for any inconvenience.

We expect to have the network upgrades complete by October 15, 2003.

Thank you in advance for your patience while we work to deliver this exciting service enhancement.


Sincerely,

Adelphia Communications

I'm in Fountain and they told me on countless occasions that I would not be able to receive hdtv for another 3 months. I went to the local office yesterday and they told me all I needed was the hd receiver. Brought it home and it's working great. I just hope they are right about the date for the new speeds. I can't wait to have 512k up.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,8166422 Tue, 07 Oct 2003 14:23:45 EDT Colorado Springs, CO Upgrade http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,8165883 JRKy : Spoke with a tech last night that said on the 12th of October.
