Does anybody know if there is a way to password protect or block the youtube app on these new mediacom tivo boxes? I'm trying to keep my kids from watching crap on there they shouldn't be when I'm not around.

I actually had a similar situation happen to a buddy... When he told me I made the 2011 weeden face
If your kids want to see something, they are probably going to find ways to see it.
Mediacom always sucked in Ames. Does it suck in Des Moines? I have centurylink but can only get 40 mbps - Mediacom offers 100 mbps. Any reason I shouldn't switch? Internet only.

Mediacom sucks everywhere
Have never heard anything positibe about CL either. Depends what you do but you might not even need more than 25 mbps. Unless you're downloading large video game or movie (legally
Youtube has a "restricted mode" that might do what you need:

Even if Mediacom thought they had a way to do it ... it wouldn't work and they would find a way to charge you more.

Very happy with my Mediacom products (Net and TV). Support has been good, I PM their twitter with questions.
I wouldn't switch to IMon, Qwest or even SouthSlope if I had the opportunity. Okay I would look at SS, just because of their speed.

So basically to sum this up nobody knows if there is a way to do what I'm asking but mediacom sucks. I'm not a huge fan but they are my only option for internet and the amount of suck compared to the cost of Directv (which I had) plus mediacom internet isn't worth it. I had century link DSL with the directv and never got over 1mb/s and that's when it was working. They told me that's the best I could get because of the infrastructure between my house and there server wouldn't support anything better.
In the case of doing 40mb vs. 100mb, do whatever is cheaper. There is no conceivable situation where the normal person needs 100mb speeds. There's rarely a server on the planet that will actually serve you that real speed.
Actually their tech support walked me though how to uninstall it. I don't ever use it so that seems good to me. Now I don't have to hear those losers that are playing minecraft.
