I recently moved from an apartment and into a house. I had numerous connection related issues when I lived in the apartment. Two days ago I had a cable line installed in my house and the Roadrunner service transfered over to the house. Now I get disconnected every 15 minutes and the time that I do have service I have tons of dropped packets. They are sending someone out tomorrow, but I have very little faith that Time Warner will fix it. After thinking about what I went through in the past I ordered DSL through ZoomTown here in Cincinnati. Should I just cancel the RoadRunner service and forget about have a service tech come out or should I wait until I have both services in order to compare the two? I really don't know what to expect with DSL. It may be better or it may even be worse.

see if they can fix your cable since he's on his way anyways, the DSL may be a few days at best in my experience. you can cancel the DSL at any time and just send whatever you need to back.

What I'm going to do is wait a week and play around with both to see which one is best. The cable guy is coming over today, but I have no faith in these guys based on past experiences.
