Doing fine in the Redondo area, went thru pain a few months ago when the upgrades for more HD rolled
out.
Call and bitch. My problem was "gain too high for transmitting frequency band".
It took three? visits over a couple of weeks. My neighbor had Comcast Internet and digital TV. His TV was fine the whole time but he had the same connection problems I did.
When the problem started I would loose my connection for 5 to 15 minutes at a time, near the end I lost Internet connectivity for a day or so.

Yup...
I get full tilt 19.2 Mbps uncrunched HD streams on my TV.
Which makes up for my measly and highly consistent 2.5MBps up <i><b>AND</b></i> down speeds.
Try that on your asymetrical shared DOCSIS node.
Sadly it does come with a price. There is no risk of having monthly usage caps, packet filtering / blocking and inconsistent service up times.
Yeah, it sucks on FiOS.
