I turned on my cable TV and could not get any channels. There was just a message saying Your Digital Service has been disconnected and to call 1-888-438-2427.
I checked and my Internet service and phone service was still working.
I knew I had paid my Charter Cable bill but I logged into Charter just to make sure. I am all paid up.
So I called the number and got a live person and they sent a signal to my box and fixed the problem. Odd problem. I have never seen that problem in the past.
I checked everything and everything seems to be working.
I did notice that now EPIX 490 has the normal sort of screen that you see when you don’t get a pay channel. The one that tells you that you can upgrade and how much it cost a month ($10).
You will remember that I blogged about their free three day demo and that it lasted longer that three days but the entire time the channel would be buffering all the time and you could not watch anything on it.
Not sure what is going on with EXIP.
I see that in some areas of the United States that Charter is moving their channels around. I suspect that Charter is getting ready to add new channels or do something and that they are making changes.
OK I just did a search again and it looks like Charter is adding 28 new HD channels and when they do that they appear to be moving channels around.
They are doing that in MO and other areas so it will come to Dallas/Fort Worth soon I am sure.
This appears to be the list 28 new free high-definition channels they are adding in other areas so I am sure we will get them soon. I guess the channel numbers will be the same.
The 28 high-definition channels being added include:
Channel Channel No.
