One of the locals managed to leak this lovly bit of info

Quote:

about Baton Rouge..and he told me the area that I was in (Baton Rouge 1 mile radius around the LSU campus) was the most degraded area in the whole Cox network around the NATION. That is verbatim what the Cox rep said.

They told me that when they shut down the network in Baton Rouge last weekend, they were hoping to get everything fixed, but in fact it made everything worse. They said they have to replace all the cables around the LSU area. Looks like I might be stuck with some bad connections for at least another month!!! Oh well...i should spend less time online and more on studying.

yea when @home bit the big one, it tooka LOT of people with it.
my friends that had comcast, were living in pure customer service hell for about a week, when comcast finally caught on...
now they're talking some major improvements, we'll see....our Capt, NetRat, is still getting bit by it, like last practice, it kept dropping him every 5 minutes...which makes it a pain
Good Luck!!!!
