I'm simply amazed my Direct TV. It hasn't even thought about freezing up.

Froze up around 4:30. I'll trade that for still having power.

Mine is down. Guy on the radio just said that some of their boosters are down. Not sure what a booster is but apparently it supplies power for the cable signal. If it is down for your area than no cable.

Just lost Cox in the middle of the calmest weather I have had since last night.

Time to make the DirectTv jump.

This is the response I got via Twitter from Cox.

Not me. Abandoned Cox a long time ago.

Eatel FTW. It's been going strong like a mofo the whole storm.

Time to quit sending $170 a month to Cox. Been looking for an excuse. Just got one.

I've been w/o net and tv since 6am but that's nothing new for Cox at my house. I have had power all day.

There is a serious disconnect between Cox and their contractors. None of them no shite beyond the basics.

What had been really frustrating is my iPhone. Really slow and some apps just don't work today
