Comment on Charter Said to Be Near Deal to Buy Time Warner Cableparent

Comments

Perhaps Charter could pull it off? They are the one broadband ISP I have no experience with.

Charter cable and internet seem pretty solid. Their business phone service has had terrible growing pains over the last year [maybe two years? my memory fails me], with multiple, multiple-hour outages during the middle of business days. Our sales guy told me they've recently decided to implement rolling switch restarts after future emergency outages, instead of trying to restart every switch in their network at once and getting their shoelaces tied together. I told him that sounded like a good idea, so good that perhaps they should have had it from the very beginning.

I can't say I've had the same experience. They've made me miss Comcast - never thought I would say that.
