I have Time Warner crap cable and my cable modem has lost signal 6 times this week and my internet is deathly slow. Because of this I'm looking into a new ISP. Im currently looking at Earthlink, does anyone have this? It is good? What ISP do you have and do you recommend it?

Thanks!

I'm from the UK, so I can't answer that question for you. However, if you click on your city/town in the following list, you should get a list of suppliers for your area. You should then be able to find out more information on them.

Must just need some repair work
Have had Time Warner for years, ie Road Runner internet service and it's been several years since I had any issues.
Sure it's not related to the bad winter weather we've had here in Ohio?? And some line or something needs repaired/replaced?
Earthlink on what, a phone line? You don't know the meaning of deathly slow till you try that.
Just my experience

Time Warner is coming out Saturday to "fix" my internet, but they probably wont do a thing.

I still want to switch, but still don't know who to switch to.

Im also considering FiOS but I'm not sure if it's available were I am. However, do I have to get new wire system to get Fiber Optics speed?
