I heard that the SoCal Road Runner subscribers (SoCal manages Oceanic's network here in Hawaii) are going to be getting 7Mbps/512Kbps or 7Mbps/768Kbps upgrade coming up in January 2007. So there is chance Hawaii might get this upgrade then.

I don't know if you knew about last week's outage in Hilo, which was supposed to be a new node deployment that actually ended up taking longer than planned, and when it did come up, not everyone had a working connection.

Re: Road Runner Speed Upgrade ?
Actually I have HawTel DSL, I had heard this from a Road Runner subscriber
I know. That being said, I've heard that they've had to split and recombine
nodes in Hilo before. It can be a really tricky, if it is not done right people
will lose their connection.
The Kona side will be going through a transition too. As the headend will
be moved from the Luhia Street location to the Kaloko light industrial
location in the next few months. As far as I understand that will be a huge
job, considering all the nodes in Kona. The new OTW office opens officially
today at Kaloko though.Check out my blog on Kona issues :
