Interesting, at first I doubted it was time warner but it seems there are a bunch of people from the Rochester area having the same problem with road runner and RC. I use Verizon’s DSL and it works pretty good for me…

Sometimes DSL is faster and sometimes it is slower. Road runners speeds vary greatly depending on what time of day you are using it. From my understanding DSL’s speed stays constant. At peek hours DSL is probably faster but it is hard to say for sure…

I can dl a music file that is around 3Meg in about 2 min with DSL it is very constant in its speed ...

This is the first access to RC I've had in almost three days. Why does TW block the site? Did they say that they door is that an assumption.
