love that i live in the middle of a major city and i'm somehow restricted to only @xfinity and there is literally 0 obligation for it to ever goddamn work, it's not like i work from home or anything and need reliable internet

i pay 200 goddamn dollars a month for my shit to not work for days, this sucks

Buy a new modem and wifi router instead of the shitty ones they give you, in home setups those are usually the choke points

You notice the sleigh of hand they do because when they install it they measure your speed directly from the wall and in my case it was literally 10x slower through the default router they then attached

can confirm, returning all their devices to them and buying your own (superior) ones is a speed-improvement and a cost savings. also you dont have to deal with their nightly pushing of updates /signal that cause device to reboot

Yup, defo buy your own modem. I’d also say run cat6 to your machine, but I know you kids are into this newfangled wireless business.

imagine a rental apartment laid out so the workstation is close to the modem
