      I'm moving into a new apt on 5th and 23rd. What are my options for cable/internet?

      Thanks

      Not very many.

      TV you're stuck with Time Warner or a Dish.

      Internet is also TW or Verizon DSL.

      I doubt Verizon FIOS will make it to us soon.

      I thought Optimum Online was available as well, no?

      We're TWC cats, especially since the Boro hub just up 5th Ave.

      Wasnt availble to me at 22nd and 7th.

      But I have had no problems with TWC to be honest.

      I had no HDTV reception and they sent technician after technician until it was fixed, even reimbursed me for lost service without my asking.

      Just moved to 21 btwn 5th and 6th,(new construction) and am having the worst possible time trying to get TWC. We're on the side where the church is. I can't imagine that st. John's condos wouldn't have cable access. Could it be possible that TWC just doesn't wire our side of the street? Freaking out here. Husband is a graphic designer and needs his Internet. I'm missing my trashy tv.:(

      Well, there is always satellite.

      Sheat, TWC is on 5th and 27th, so it should not be a prob. I'll bet the church is wired.

      If you hit a brick wall (or dry wall ), PM me.

      TWC has served me just lovely. Their internet service is more adequate than i was expecting to with 3 computers in my apartment using it at once.
