Just curious as to what everyone is getting these days. I had U-Verse for about 4 years and upgraded the speed about the same number of times, but it always seemed "laggy" and the speeds varied quite a bit throughout the day. About 3 months ago, I upgraded to the fastest they had (I forget the name) and had a myriad of problems making it stable and operational. The first day I had it was the fastest it ever was:
After that first day despite no less than seven techs coming out and also a ground crew working on the underground wiring, it become slower and slower, until it slowed to 18 down and 5 up with a bouncing connection every evening during the last week I had it. I kicked them to the curb five weeks ago and switched to xfinity one and now have these speeds that are stable no matter what time of the day:
xfinity has been stating they are going to double everyone's bandwidth at no charge during the coming year, so when that happens (I have a promotion for 1 year), I will probably drop one level and still have this speed. I have friends/colleagues in the NE that have Verizon FiOS that tell me it is near 100MBS speeds.
What are you guys getting these days for speed and is it stable?
