[edit] General Info
In addition to a standard basic cable lineup - including staples like Comedy Central, Speed TV, etc. - they offer two tiers of cable internet service: 512kbps and 1Mbit downstream, and around 512kbps upstream for each. At certain apartments, like Heritage at Riverwood, Family View offers significantly reduced pricing tiers in an attempt to gain userbase - almost half of package prices offered by Northland Cable. Basic cable and 1Mbit internet are about $60 monthly. Family View is essentially run by a single man from Seneca, who is technically adept, friendly, and eager to help customers.
[edit] Service Offerings
FamilyView Cablevision offers a basic lineup of over 65 channels, including channels like ESPN-U, Bravo, NFL Network and many others at a reasonable price. The Internet service is generally reliable and very reasonably priced. Recent upgrades have been made in an effort to alleviate past problems with latency and picture quality. They have a web page that has some information about their services - www.famview.com. Residents at Heritage at Riverwood can sign up online and have their cable connected when they move in.
[edit] Reputation
Family View has not had a stellar reputation amoung Clemson students. However, since implementing a fiber optic backbone to their network, service quality has vastly improved. Picture quality, and internet latency are no longer a problem and the majority of students living in their area subscribe to the their cable modem service.
