You had 250 and your WiFi was only at 50? Either you have lead in your walls, a ton of interference or some really bad config.

The Comcast dude who set up your WiFi or whoever, needed to make sure youre speed was decent..
Anyway, with your new tier, make sure your WiFi devices have 802.11ac cards in them otherwise youre wasting half+ of the speed youre paying for

Spending 130 more for less speed is overkill..lol Reminds me I need to call Sp-rectum to haggle. Im paying I think 160/mo for basic cable and 100mpbs. I only watch maybe 3 channels on cable.. ugh

Ha! About a year ago, I was torquing down my new rear shocks on my Jeep and... Oh sh##, my shoulder! WTF!!!??? Wasn't too bad, but took about 6 months for the pain to disappear and mobility to return.

Shortly after, I invested in a whole new group of electric tools. :icon17:

Yep, getting old...

yea my comcast was $220 a month for 250mbps internet, semi basic cable with some extra sports, and home phone for the bundle price.

i realized i literally only watch the penguins on tv and the 100.

sooooo 4x the internet speed and $90 locked in price with no fuckin me with a new $5-10 fee every month. my comcast started at $79 a month. in 4 years it got up to $220 and next month was $225 now.

bunk 03-26-2019 09:10 AM

I wouldnt be surprised if the providers get a government subsidy depending on the number of land line subscribers they have. Why else would they bundle it up?

it's called gonetspeed.

they're from NY and i guess are expanding and chose my area to test? idk it works and it's good.

3 tiers. 150mbps/50 a month - 500mbps/70 a month - 1gbps/90 a month.

and my favorite part....

"To prove it, GoNetspeed is offering a “Lifetime Price Pledge.” For the entire time that you are our customer we will not raise your monthly Internet fees. Ever."
