The following log is NOT inclusive of all cable modem reboots that have occurred, due to being out of town/away from machines, etc.; there is also at least one full week of log data missing, and many other reboots were simple not caught due to the cablemodem log scrolling log entries away due to so many reboots and errors.

As of 05 June–not counting any missed days or missed reboots–the average number of reboots since 12 March 2007 is 4.3 per day.

That’s averaged over the last three months. Does Time-Warner consider this acceptable? We don’t.

In fact, the only reason it’s not averaging higher is because we’ve been adjusting our usage due to knowing we’re going to have trouble anytime we try to use it.

The logging is a huge pain in the butt to do. It’s time-consuming. It reminds us daily of the problem that TW doesn’t seem to care about. I hate doing it. But the logging must continue, until this is finally resolved.

                  1335  attempting to download latest WoW patch and watch
                        an online video review, neither of which is
                        particularly bandwidth-intensive…and failing. Again.

                  1607  275MB WoW patch finally downloaded at 1545. TWO HOURS.
                        Insanely slow with constant restarts/pauses!
