It might be that I have fiber in my house which blows everything away. No latency ever and 5M up.
ahh...so you switched from suckass Optimum to Verizon then? I still have optonline but only until they cap me again, they its bye bye forever. they still give me 30mb down so im satisfied
30 mb down is bs so don't believe the hype. I dod believe they raised your upload speed though because they needed to compet with fios. to mw upload is mor eimportant than download but regardless, you never get the max when downloading because the servers ususally have you capped.
test your bandwidth across America and tell me what you get. Try seattle or cali and that will give you an average dl speed.
The problem with cable is when their is high traffic on your node you will slow down. Picture a bunch of people like you on your street on the web. This is where cable needs to double their bandwidth and if they are capping you which I know they do which is bs and should not be allowed no matter what you do onthe web, you need to start sending less checks and tell them you are capping your bank account.
You can always continue to complain also and have them come to your house every day which costs them money. I did that for awhile because I was sick and tired of the slowdowns with optimum. I am really happy there is competition now and was first to call cable up and tell them to go F themselves and canceled. Now I have Fios tv and all and I am happy because the signal to the tv's are much better along with having clean throughput on my network. On my home netowrk I use gbit lan so everyone can be using the internet and downloading what ever they want at the same time which gives me no problem.
hmm i didnt know that , thanks for the info
you tihnk i should switch to fios now? how much besides the monthly fee do i have to pay them (installation charges, etc)
if you have fios available, then the price is very similiar to cables if you use there phone system. they have a triple play package for 99.99. I myself spend a lot more because I get teh Italian station along with all the movie channels. All in all I save because I don't need the satelite on the roof any more as I get it through verizon fios.
as for quality of service, I would say they probably are the same when on the phone but the fibre is much better and so is the fios product.
Installation was free also
sweet deal
ill switch to them asap
