Extremely high latency with home internet
Just recently got the home internet gateway and it's been incredibly disappointing. For the price of it and the fact we have cell towers, including tmobiles towers, within less than a milebof our...
Shows an excellent connection every where I've connected it. Using the camera showed nothing at all, literally just sent me in circles. Point it towards the location of two nearby towers and just keeps saying turn left over and over. Again due to close proximity of a few towers, the connection remains "excellent".
Regardless, the "connection" shows excellent. Download has peaked at around 400mbs but it's useless when the latency is sometimes nearly as high and could be 10x higher than upload speeds.
The test attached is just a quick one I ran from my phone at this time. I've even attached gigabit routers to the gateway to see if they'd be of any help and it's changed nothing.
Again, speeds are not the problem. It's the latency. The latency disrupts everything else drastically. Speed could be 800-1200mbs (like my last provider) but it's completely useless when latency is so high, hence why I thought I'd try this out
