Service is AT&T 5000 (5G FTTP) technology isn't widely available yet to do a speedtest from a computer. I test the 5G from the gateway (BGW320) to the AT&T servers using the Smart Home Manager app, typically get between 4,700M-5,200M download, slightly less upload, 4,200M-4,700M.

Hmm I wish well I live in rural Australia and my net provider is the national carrier Telstra and I pay $115 per month for 50Mbps over wifi and sometimes am lucky to get up to 80Mbps. So net speeds like you fellows get is a pipe dream that is not going come soon.

For the low, low price of $71.99/month...

But wait, there's more. That price is with two promo discounts. When those end, the price goes up to $114/month. I will be bidding Spectrum a friendly farewell at that point.

After 20 plus years of COX and price increases for a slow 250/12 ($90) I decided to look elsewhere.
Wyyerd just installed fiber in Phoenix AZ and in Surprise.
Install was easy and quick with their wifi router and now have 1Gig / 1Gig for a reasonable price of $105
With some latency it drops to 950 up and down.
2 ms ping rate and 1ms jitter.

Stable and constant and glad I left Cox.

I just moved to a new apartment, approx. 2-3 miles away.
So, I decided to do a new Speedtest for Christmas.
I pay for 300 down / 300 up, same as before.

Same old for the past 6 years or so...


Yeah the Verizon tech showed up on Monday, and said we can offer up to 2GB/sec.
I told him 300/300 is fine. He looked... surprised. LOL

Ofc, the fiber modem (ONT), is at one side of the apartment and my comp is at the other side.
So I have a CAT6 Ethernet cable running across the floor.

So I ordered some of these... to protect the cable and remove the trip hazard...
I could just see myself, one morning... catching the cable with my foot and pulling the computer off the desk. LOL

I like Verizon, because their internet "never" goes down. :cool:
Oh, mesh system is not a network provider. It's a router device that you can place in different rooms for better coverage and speed without running cables. You can just plug it into your Verizon modem and put the pods in different rooms and you are good to go.

For covering cables across the floor might consider gaffer tape as used by movie studios in their sets, less of a bump.
