Re: Slow 4G connection only, but only sometimes -- SOLVED
Thank you for the suggestions. My firewall has already been neutered so I think I can eliminate that. Its harder for me to move my router around for reasons I can't disclose here. Lol. But, I think your point is well taken. There must be something happening with stability in my signal that is making the router drop my 5g band. I will experiment with that. Hopefully, if I figure it out, I will remember to come on here and update the thread. Also, I'm very glad to hear that you have a stable, strong signal. I bet you are so happy! I know I will be if I can get it to stabilize. I have had CenturyLink DSL for years and OMG…. torture! Of course you had dial up so I can't complain. I mean seriously… how is dial up still a thing? :))) Thanks for responding!10Visto1like0ComentariosRe: Slow 4G connection only, but only sometimes -- SOLVED
Tim… thank you for sharing your insights in your post! I have been having a similar issue and your post is the only thing I found that directly addresses the problem. You are a scholar and a gentleman! In my case, my secondary signal drops from time to time. When that happens my connection is basically useless. At that point, I run a continuous ping [ping www.google.com -t] and see ping spikes that always look the same. They build up over 4 pings and then drop back down. Something like this: ping 1: 78ms ping 2: 245ms ping 3: 679 ms ping 4: 1084 ms ping 5: 84 ms ping 6: 455 ms ping 7: 872 ms ping 8: timed out After a while, magically, the signal will stabilize and reconnect on the secondary signal and all my pings are sub 100ms. What I don't understand is why the secondary signal drops, at all. Why not just stay connected? Any insights on that? Thanks again!!13Visto1like0Comentarios
