Cable line question

Post by KingMetalx »

About a year ago my neighborhood finally got a Time Warner Cable line down our street and a few months after that we got a letter in the mail saying something along the lines of "We're Here! You can now get Time Warner Cable."

My question has to do with the cable line itself: we got the line down our street, but I haven't gotten a line directly to my house yet. Does anyone know how much they will charge me to get this line to my house and installed if I wanted to get RoadRunner? Thanks! :thumb:

They have deals usually around xmas for free installation sometimes, if not it shouldnt be much over $150.

50 would be the average around here, may be able to get it for less if you play your cards right, how far from the street are you

Where I work there is sometimes a 39.95 install charge but not to often. I dont really think it would be more than that, unless they are raping you. :)

yeah would be 30 here so less than 50 seems safe, just checking to see if you were to far for an rg6 drop.
