[colug-432] problems with roadrunner?

[Dave Alden]

Hi,

Is anyone else experiencing problems with roadrunner?  For the past 
couple of weeks I've been having brief (a few minutes) network problems 
every few hours.  What'll happen during the problem time is my ping 
times will go from 50-60 ms up to many seconds (sometimes as long as 25 
seconds) and then back down to 50-60 ms -- this will repeat for a few 
minutes and then all is normal again for many hours.

I have a continually running ping going from my linux router to my 
gateway.  I've tried substituting a new modem, but I'm still having the 
same problem.  TimeWarner hasn't been any real help (I can't seem to get 
past the level 1 tech's and I'm tired of calling them). Any suggestions 
(besides dropping TimeWarner :)?

ps  My son just told me that his friends are reporting similar problems 
(several in our area, Gahanna, and one in Westerville).
