Cablenet is the only Cable TV and Cable Internet carrier in Cyprus. Currently the coverage is limited only to several urban areas. The difference between Cable Internet and ADSL is that unlike ADSL (I-choice, Primetel) that connect you to the internet via the telephone line that is already installed in your home, you connect to Cablenet with a separate coaxial cable that is installed to your home once you purchase the service. Therefore, connecting to the Internet through Cablenet is independent of your telephone carrier. Cablenet also offers an ADSL product which is available at more locations.

Guys this error appears every night in the cable modem event log.
No Ranging Response received - T3 time-out
can anyone of you see your modem event log from your modem admin page?does anyone of you experiencing or can see this error in you log?
I searched on the net and found that this is a very common problem with cable technology but it needs a good technician so it can get fixed so with Cablenet will NEVER get fixed.
I'm from Larnaca i don't have time to visit their headquarters or wtf they are called.They are not a company their new name will be mpakalikonet.I'm leaving because of it and their fu*****g problems.

Send them an email saying that you will not pay unless they find and solve the problem. also tell them not to bill you until everything is fixed.

Λοιπον άρχισα να εκνευρίζομαι με τις αθέμιτες εμπορικές πρακτικές της cablenet.
http://europa.eu/legislation_summaries/consumers/consumer_information/l32011_el.htm
1. ακρίβωσε τα τέλη τηλεφωνίας (όχι οτι με ενδιαφέρει αφού δεν τηλεφωνώ απο σταθερό.
2. ακρίβωσε το πάγιο από €42 σε €42.90 πριν 5-6 μήνες (το οποιο κατάλαβα γιατί έγινε. θα δείτε στο 4. πιο κατω)
3. διαφημίζει 38-40 κανάλια για την αναλογική χωρις να λέει οτι θα τα μειώσει σε 30 (για να το γνωρίζουν απο πριν οι νεοι συνδρομητές)
4. Η καλή μας εταιρία που σκέφτεται τον πελάτη, έστειλε επιστολή ότι θα επωμιστεί την αύξηση του ΦΠΑ απο τα 15% στα 17% μέχρι τον Ιούνιο. δηλαδή 2%. αυτό το 2% είναι τα 90 σεντ που ανέβασε την τιμή πριν 6 μήνες για να ερτει τωρα να μας πει οτι μας σκέφτεται και δεν θα τα χρεώνει.
Προσωπικά, μετά απο όλα αυτά, σκέφτομαι διακόψω το τηλέφωνο και να ζητησω downgrade από 10mbps σε 1.
γενικα δεν εχω προβλημα μαζί τους εκτός απο το οτι κοβεται για καμια ώρα η συνδεση οταν βρεχει αλλά, δεν μου αρεσει η πολιτική της κοροϊδίας.

Το τελευταίο διάστημα δεν έχω τις ταχύτητες που είχα προηγούμενος ειδικά στο rapidshare κατεβάζω με το μισό από ότι κατέβαζα πριν.
Και κάτι άλλο στα speedtest ενώ έχω 12Mbps το πολύ να πάει στα 10Mbps και το Upload μου από τα 3Mbps μονο 1Mbps.

επίσης το οτι δεν βλέπεις τις ίδιες ταχύτητες που είχες, σημαίνει ότι εχει περισσοτερους συνδρομητες στην περιοχή σου η cablenet τον τελευταίο καιρό. το rapidshare αν δεν εχεις πληρωμένο λογαριασμό, εριξε πολύ τις ταχυτητες.
ρίξε επίσης μια ματιά στο dhcp στο router σου μηπως ειναι ενωμένος κάποιος και κατεβάζει
