Thanks. I found out it is Century Cable for Yorba Linda but I can't find a web site for them. I have Comcast Cable in Buena Park and have their At-Home Internet service. I like the service, it is extremely fast and reliable. The only thing I didn't care for was the false advertising that got me to sign up. Comcast falsely advertised the price as being $39.95 per month PLUS a $10.00 off per month IF you also had their basic cable t.v. subscription. Therefore you would think that $39.95 less $10.00 would equal $29.95 per month right? Wrong! What it did not say ANYWHERE on their false advertising was that the REAL price was $49.95 per month. And that the $39.95 price in their ad already took into consideration the $10.00 discount on assumption that you had the basic cable already. I just received an ad for Pacific Bell DSL service. I may have to look in to that. Does Century Cable have a web site? Joe Jared wrote in message <372E87A5.A4ED2EE1@webworldinc.com>... >A friend of mine lives in placentia, and has cablenet.
