You can add Garner to that issue list too. I'm in Eagle Ridge (which has
a Raleigh address) ...but in all it's glory ...I still live in Garner.

Ive been strugging with TWC out here in char.  not sure what my upstream
is, but I know my pings will time out about every 5-10 min if i ping it
to death.  Also have had some other issues with my service just
disapearing.

Ive thought of switching to DSL, but wonder if ill have the same
problem.

What ever your problem is out in apex, i wonder if its related to the
same thing i have been fighting here in charlotte for the past forever.
