  1. TWC is famous for overloading their nodes. I'll bet your speed loss is in peak times 7pm to 12 midnight. Caused by overloaded nodes with people streaming netflix's and other stuff like that. Like Pgoodwin1 said keep chipping at them and keep asking for you $20 discount like I did. They got tired of giving me discounts and finally moved me to another node, now all  is good until they overload this one. Then back  to the discounts until they move me again or put in a new node. Just my 2 cents.

    I know it's bothersome but isn't that the point of permissions, to avoid misuse of files by hackers or other people who may be using your computer? although it is weird that an OS upgrade would make you lose your permissions if you usually login with admin/root privileges
     

    I use admin/root privileges. Never had a problem upgrading through the different OS's, just W10. They were movies I put on a external hard drive from disk and converted to .mp4. Don't know why but it did. 

  3. After upgrading to W10 I lost permissions to over half my movies. Figured out how the get the permissions back,m but it was a pain and took a long time. Looking around I found this program and it make permissions a snap. Its called "Take Ownership" If you have this problem I highly recommend it! It works with all OS's since Vista!

  4. W 10 just did a major update that took almost as long as the first install. Wish M$ would get their shit together and put out an OS that was finished. I know my next laptop will be a Mac. Tired of having my time wasted fixing M$ fuck ups!! Instead of attracting people they are driving them away!! Rant over!!

  5. The TCP Optimizer really has not worked since XP. The newer OS's are self adjusting. Do you clear your cache before each test, it make a difference. Rebooting your modem periodically helps also. I've noticed older computers will not keep up with the higher speeds offered today.
