Home internet not the option for rural areas that was hoped for.
I live in a rural area and the best speed I get is with only 2 bars of the primary which is usually B2 or B66 and 3 bars of secondary signal, N71. I started out with generally 50 to 80 down during the day around 100 at night, and anywhere 20 to 50 up. That alone was enough for me to cancel Spectrum. I was paying for 400 down and 20 up and it was very reliable. But now that I had a option, I was going to try. I didn't hate Spectrum, I was tired of escalating costs and every year calling to negotiate the price. I'm not gamer, I don't use VPN or worried about port forwarding etc. I live on an acre and the WiFi coverage with just the T-MOBILE router is everywhere, I live in a ranch and it's in the center of the house, I can't see any towers, but I know where they are. I can vouch for gradually rotating the router until you find the sweet spot. Just in the last two weeks I had to turn the router off and back on because the internet disconnected completely. The wifi still worked but no internet. After turning it back on, my speeds doubled to 190-200 down and 20-30 up. Since then my speeds have consistently been 150 to 190 and 20-50 up. I couldn't explain why, just supposition. Memory leak? Nater Tater alludes to that in one of his videos. I just know that between TMO internet and YouTube TV I don't miss Spectrum at "ALL".
