FYI; This is what your net-without-cable bill will eventually look like assuming you've got your own cable-modem. http://imladris.wpi.edu/~mvoorhis/20140505-2259-CharterBill.jpg If anyone can successfully delete the "Internet Plus Upgrade" please do let us all know. I've tried. You will be subject to endless junkmail and robo-calls telling you how wonderful your life will be if you upgrade to the Charter "Triple Play." Sign up for the triple play and you will be young, again. -MCV.

Re: [Wlug] OT: Looking for ISP

by E Johnson

Update: after visiting the Charter website, I find that their current deal is 39.99 for internet only. Internet only is the service I use. "They say" this is for New Customers Only but I am here to say It Ain't Necessarily So. I was a little tweaked when I discovered this rate, because I am a light internet user (don't download movies, don't stream, don't fileshare, etc), and I was required to pay 54.99 after the last promo deal of 44.99 (they offered ME this) expired recently. I did pay their new price for 2 months this year (for April/May service). However, after finding out that NEW customers for 30/4 internet pay only 39.99, I called to ask for a better deal. I asked for their latest Promo (which is a code word for "I know you can do better than this"). After over 1 hour of phone calls, several non-silent holds (hearing ads & the kooky Charter theme song), one billing rep, one sales rep and another billing rep because Charter dropped my (internet) call, my rate is now 39.99 for 30 down, 4 up, for 12 months after which they tell me it will revert to 54.99. This discount happened because I was quiet, respectful, peaceful, able to clearly and calmly explain my position and customer history, and expressed appreciation for each of these these reps for doing their jobs, without being effusive. Being on Musical and Advertisement Hold several times during these calls was rather annoying, but the phone reps were attentive and nice, and did what need doen. Bottom Line: $54.99 reduced now to 39.99 puts $15 in my pocket here, which is enough for one large Tech Pizza with 2 toppings per month, delivered here still hot, plus an extravagent tip for the delivery guy. So Rich, if you get a nice promo for a year for whatever you need & then the bill goes up, Do Call Back Negotiate. This is not the first time I have obtained a promo from Charter after my last promo expired. A final note: I haven't been able to contact Charter by their usual number for around a year or more, but the corporate office number also works and the menu will direct you to whatever department is needed, including Billing, which is where I started on my latest & greatest journey with them this eve. 314 965 0555.

Agreed on Charter being the only choice for Woostuh, where I lived and worked through the glorious 1980s and again briefly 2006-06 and 2010. That wottuh problem under Southbridge Street is due primarily to runoff from the hills above it PLUS the Blackstone River tributary which they built the street and 290 over back when.

Re: [Wlug] OT: Looking for ISP

Charter is probably the only viable option. Depending on what you need (TV or not? Phone or not? Or just internet), you can probably get a promotion with a price that will remain fixed for 1-2 years. Whether or not you need a "package" or only internet, ask the customer service (sales) Rep to find you a promotion. I'm paying 54 now for only internet, which can run 30 mb down and I think 5 up. This is up from a one-year promo for which I was paying 44. When I check the download speeds, it usually comes down at around 35 mb. Internet analysis test (the Netalyzer at USC Berkley I think) is very comprehensive and has been giving good reports. Once Charter got some line issues fixed in the neighborhood about 2 years ago, the Netalyzer tests come out very good. The only complaint that Netalyzer notices is that the buffer is somewhat too big, but usually things work okay, even in packet-sensitive applications such as Skype. But maybe that is my router or something. Maybe the modem (which I own). Welcome back to Woo.

Re: [Wlug] OT: Looking for ISP

When I recently moved back to Worc, the options were: DSL or Cable internet. DSL wasn't an option for me (IMHO), because the speed was predicted to be "as high as" 3Mbps on my street, so I reluctantly went with cable internet. The only cable provider in the city is Charter. It's no match for the FiOS internet I had in Marlborough, but it's better than DSL. Charter's advertised speed is 30Mbps, but I occasionally see upwards of 40Mbps. Upload is capped at 4.2Mbps.

Re: [Wlug] OT: Looking for ISP

Don't forget to fix bufferbloat. A lot of complaints people have with ISPs is probably due to high latencies under load caused by bufferbloat. You can fix bufferbloat by running either CeroWrt or a "Barrier Breaker" development release of OpenWrt.

I live in the same general area (Malvern Rd) and your choice is either Verizon DSL or Charter Cable. I used Verizon DSL and found it to be really SLOOWWWW. The switching office is too far away for fast speeds. I use charter and I get 30 mb download. It is more reliable than Verizon. The phone trunk lines run under southbridge street and there is a severe water problem along that route.

Hi folks! I will be introducing OpenSCAD, a DSL for CAD modeling. It is a finite, functional scripting language that outputs shapes ready for 3d printing. It has a C like syntax that is parsed into an OpenCSG tree, that is then compiled down to a .stl triangular mesh. It supports all source code version control unlike most 3d design software, and also has a powerful library system for modular designing. If you install it ahead of time (or when you get here) i can do a live coding walk through. http://www.openscad.org/ http://www.openscad.org/cheatsheet/ On May 3, 2014 12:00 PM, <wlug-request(a)mail.wlug.org> wrote: > Send Wlug mailing list submissions to > wlug(a)mail.wlug.org > > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > http://mail.wlug.org/mailman/listinfo/wlug > or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > wlug-request(a)mail.wlug.org > > You can reach the person managing the list at > wlug-owner(a)mail.wlug.org > > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific > than "Re: Contents of Wlug digest..." > > > Today's Topics: > > 1.
