cetoole Posted November 27, 2018 Report Share Posted November 27, 2018 My Ubiquiti Edgerouter Lite has been rock solid for years, haven't had to touch it. It was my previous router which couldn't keep up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

naamanf Posted April 12, 2019 Report Share Posted April 12, 2019 My phone now says 5GE. What ever that means. Not bad for fake 5G. Just making sure it wasn’t skewed. Must be the signal bouncing off the trailer homes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

naamanf Posted October 24, 2023 Report Share Posted October 24, 2023 I’m blown away by how fast 5G is in my house. As faster or faster than my WiFi https://www.speedtest.net/result/i/5827222002 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Augsburger Posted October 24, 2023 Report Share Posted October 24, 2023 My 5G and Wifi both push 580 mbps... a bit faster when I drink the right Paso Syrah. 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was using the free satellite wifi on a delta flight yesterday and the speeds were similar but ping in the 150s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HemiSam Posted October 24, 2023 Report Share Posted October 24, 2023 We pay waaaaaay to much for XFinity wideband and cable, but it's reliable and if I'm indoors the speeds are pretty darned good (near the router it was 639Mbpd download and 41 upload). Our bigger challenge right now is my dated Orbi mesh system is getting glitchy. I was looking at replacing it and they are quite proud of them, but Costco is putting them up for sale. With my current setup I had to go and find a refurbished satellite so I could have one in the garage for a total of four around the house. I'm not sure if this is the correct thread, but any recommendations on a mesh system? Looking at 6 not 6E as I feel the E is too early yet. I do not mind paying for quality signal coverage / speed. Thanks in advance. HS 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevin gilmore Posted October 24, 2023 Report Share Posted October 24, 2023 (edited) my orbi is getting glitchy too. replacement is $1500. likes to drop the dns once a week. i'm getting 1194 download and 24 upload. if i get the newest orbi, i can get up to about 1600 download with top xfinity tier. i don't need that yet, and then i would have to upgrade every switch in the house to 2gb or faster, and those are expensive too. also looks like i'm going to get a atsc 3.0 tuner very soon. there is a chicago station now that is broadcasting 4k cartoons. 3 stooges in 4k is da bomb.

Grahame Posted February 10 Report Share Posted February 10 https://www.speedtest.net/result/15864749683 1.2 Gbps down , overprovisioned to 1.4Gbps. looks about right. 2.5Gbps ports on Cable modem, WAN/LAN ports on router, switch and PC over Cat6 will do that. No Mid split here, yet, so still only 40Mbs up 😠 https://www.reddit.com/r/Comcast_Xfinity/wiki/knowledgebase/next-generation-internet/#wiki_west_division Still waiting for uncapped sonic.net fiber to get here. 😞 https://www.sonic.com/ 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeymad Posted February 10 Report Share Posted February 10 that is a lot of bits. It made me curious how my Musknet was doing. About as expected -- okay fast - when it is up. I have super calm weather this morning., so it can see most of the satellites. Putting it on top of a 33' pole has helped a bit. but still have to deal with the on/off switch of it all. Streaming will always be an issue. When I really need to have a stable (mostly stable) connection, I switch over to my phone's hotspot that I have a cell booster (on the same pole as the Stardish) for. It may only give me about 15Mbps, (and only LTE) but the bits are always there. Enough for a zoom or an Andy Sidaris movie when you don't want a drop out. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grahame Posted July 24 Report Share Posted July 24 (edited) Comcast / Xfinity may have upped their game. Previously ( at 1.2 ...) Now So signs are promising ... And a bit later, we seem to be getting full potential Edited July 25 by Grahame Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeymad Posted August 31 Report Share Posted August 31 Sometimes living at the base of a volcano is a bummer. Seems that Verizon has deprecated band 13 (lower Hz - but had connectivity) for band 2 (higher Hz - but I get no bits). I use to be able to get some bits from band 5 and 66 - but those are pretty much gone now as well. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
