Friedens, PA | I wonder if they will hit the points in between State College and Pittsburgh, say maybe Somerset?
If they do that, I just might have to updgrade to Premier. | |

| Re: PA Extreme Tier! I found out the long and hard way they know nothing except what is on their screen. The BEST way of finding stuff out is checking with your local office since that is where things would be deployed.

I could definately handle that! Problem is most server sites will not give you that. It will come to a point that it only helps you have multiple downloads going at once and not being slowed. The majority of FTP servers are alreadying limited FTP session rates. | |

1 edit | said by Johkal :low download issues were present for people that had the SB5100 with firmware 1.1.1.1 and others who had old modems, etc. Good to hear things are well with the SB5100 I recently bought one off of ebay in preparation for switching to Adelphia from Verizon in my area... When I called in they told me to call them back after August 15 when they will have new promotions out (and because it's when the current tenant disables their account). All I can is it better be better than their current promotions, and who knows maybe a side of Extreme with that package!

1 edit | I live near Pittsburgh Area (non-Comcast areas) and I got the phone call about extreme service... It is supposedly available for me now.
My service is from the Bethel Park Office
From what I understand as well... Adelphia has to meet certain requirements to get the full value of the company. When they were bought out, they were probably told to have a certain standard reached before take over. Good for us Adelphia customers... | |
