It's not even a waste of $10 a month. You're actually PAYING THEM to give you a piece of shit that lack performance and probably is patched once a year. As far as I'm concern, my ISP is an untrusted entity. I'm not using them for anything that runs a NAT firewall. I run my own firewalls.
Hopefully, I will have my demo unit soon. Finally got past the first couple rounds of red tape, just have one more. to go. |

I called to cancel last night. They looked up my device and said it was tied to my AZ address (not sure if I forgot to tell the store my current address or if they just screwed it up).
They said the address it's tied to can hurt prioritization on the tower, as you're lower priority if you aren't local. Sounds like a load of bullshit, but whatever... will try it out this weekend. Did a hard reset on it this morning for good measure. I figured they're either full of it and I cancel in the next few days anyway, they lied but did something that might actually help? Or it somehow actually helps. I was at a steady 500 down/40 up with little latency that first week, which clearly has nothing to do with what they said.... just stop throttling/dep-prioritizing and it would be fine.

I got the oddest Kinetic fiber account 3 weeks ago. My up exceeds my down every time I test. 143/324 just now. |

Still don't have my router - damn corporate red tape.
The good news is that it should arrive just in time for me to test some 5G UWB and mmWave upgrades they just did to the Des Moines network. |

I switched to T- Mobile 6 months ago and never looked back.

Just looked at my TMobile Tuesday app and it looks like they are going to be offering MLB.tv and MLS Season Pass for free again next Tuesday in case anyone is interested in either of those.

Just got my 5G router up and running last Thursday. I'm getting about 250 down on 5G UWB. I am able to stream flawlessly and online gaming works great too. It's actually a little better than my fiber in terms of raw bandwidth but of course the latency and packet loss are a little higher. We used over 100GB of data in 4 days, it worked so well.
