Re: Hugely variable speeds
I guess I'm the exception here. My TM 5G is meeting/exceeding my expectations. For over 10 years I was grandfathered into a legacy status withTime Warner. Spectrum finally found a way to force me to upgrade. As a legacy customer I got 50 MB down and 5 MB up that inreality was 60down and 6 up. Yes, that improved to 200 (240) down and 10 (12) up with the large price increase. So, my frame of reference is 60 down and 6 up. My gateway seems to have locked onto band B2 for 4G and switches (for whatever reason) between bands N41 and N71 for 5G. Downloads are 100-150 on N41 and 250-350 on N71. Uploads are around 70 on N41 and 30 on N71. I want to do offsite backups and 5x worst case and 12x faster best case, makes me every happy and whatever download speeds I get are fast enough for my needs. I can't see any tower from my house but the gateway is on the second floor with a window toward the one tower available to me. I consistently get 4 bars. The gateway has been running for 13+ days now with no known total outages.8Visto0likes0ComentariosRe: can the following features be added to the 5G Home gateway?
I think I solved all your problems by not having them in the first place. I have 5 routers running 2 mess networks with GB backhauls. I simply plugged my primary router into the TM gateway and everything is just like it was with my prior ISP. I happily ignore the TMprovided WIFI and that WIFI does not interfere with my prior/existing network. Just by/setup whatever router meets your needs and you will be all set.2Visto0likes0Comentarios
