Opinions on RCN internet service?

[watercolorblue.livejournal.com]

Hi, all...I live near Teele Square, and my roommate and I are looking for the best deal on high speed internet service. So far, our best bet seems to be RCN. Do any of you use RCN for cable internet? What do you think of it? Are there any fantastic deals available to Somervillians that you want to let us in on?

Thanks for your help. The roomie and I are currently in dialup hell. Please send us a floatie.

I live down near the hospital, have had RCN for 3 years, and have been mostly very satisfied. Sometimes the cable modem poops out, thugh that hasn't happened in about a year now. (I think some of the outages were due to the energy problems a couple of summers ago.) And when I've called Tech Support they've been very helpful.
