jvlgato Posted May 8, 2017 Report Share Posted May 8, 2017 Well the new 100/100 fiber at home seems to be working.. Me too! Oddly, it is $7/month cheaper than the previous 20/2 we had. Apparently, I was the first on our block to hook up to fiber. And two houses south of us, it's not available. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HemiSam Posted August 12, 2017 Report Share Posted August 12, 2017 We were with ATT Uverse for many a year. Started having intermittent internet issues. They sent a few technicians and one of the rocket scientists changed out our cable boxes to wireless...while we were having WiFi issues. Long story short, XFinity / Comcast installed today. Less money (I think) and a lot better tech. Cable boxes back on coaxial...huge win so far and have voice activated remotes that seem pretty nifty. Biggest benefit is far increased WiFi speeds. Highly range dependent...no surprise. I have not read through all the thread so forgive me if I'm asking a question that has been answered. Any practical way to use a range extender or the like to beef up the WiFi signal in the back yard which is not far from our office....but brick veneer house? Thanks in advance.

Dusty Chalk Posted August 13, 2017 Report Share Posted August 13, 2017 I think people will say, "Apple Airport Express", but I have no experience myself. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a Time Capsule I use for backup of the wife's Mac and my Mac Air. I do have a separate WiFi signal from it. Been a mixed bag as it gets wonky at times.

Sherwood Posted August 15, 2017 Report Share Posted August 15, 2017 Usually both are 300-400 Mbps higher. This was tested at 7 PM on a Tuesday, though, which is nearly peak usage. I love FiOS. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ali-Pacha Posted August 26, 2017 Report Share Posted August 26, 2017 (edited) Changed my provider yesterday, in order to spare 20 € per month. Download is a bit lower and not as rock stable as before (sometimes goes down to 800-820), but upload significantly better : Ali Edited September 8, 2017 by Ali-Pacha 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knuckledragger Posted February 4, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2018 Fucking hell. This is the Vineyard AFTER I upgraded to a DOCSIS 3.1 modem. DOCSIS 1.0, adopted in March of 1997 allowed for 40MBPS down/10 up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdipisReks1 Posted February 5, 2018 Report Share Posted February 5, 2018 Spectrum gave me a free upgrade. It's not bad. I wish the upload were better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sherwood Posted February 8, 2018 Report Share Posted February 8, 2018 Edit: I posted a very fast speed, then realized I already posted here months ago. Mine is still not the fastest, so who gives a shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voltron Posted November 27, 2018 Report Share Posted November 27, 2018 (edited) Went from AT&T DSL to Sonic fiber in SF. The 5G wifi from Sonic was about 90-100mbps. This is the ethernet connection speed. Seems better. Edited November 27, 2018 by Voltron 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or my cable modem sucks. First world problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grahame Posted November 27, 2018 Report Share Posted November 27, 2018 Impressive! I think Colin discovered previously that how you interact with the "fat pipe" can be a limiting factor. (I think Ubiquiti hardware was involved ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it’s not my issues since it’s still slow directly hooked to the modem, but I do have a full Ubiguiti system. No issues with LAN transfers.
