I got Fios as soon as it came out and it was great untill I upgraded 3 months ago to their new super duper package now everything sucks. I decided to try Comcast, any thoughts

On my internet my Fios runs at 72.36 Mbps some of the time   Comcast says I will be running at 165Mbps any experience with this

Whoa, back the bus up a bit

- You using Speedtest to check?

- What sucks, download speed, upload speed, TV viewing, wireless connectivity?

- Your router is from 1962?

These youngins today... Sheesh

I want to know your experience with the new Comcast? Good or Bad?

What say you, you  ^stirpot- 

Do you get the same speed on your PC that is hard wired?
Or is your PC wireless? Whats the numbers? Lets see what they are.....

That upload speed is excellent- FIOS normally has equal download and upload speeds, where Comcast has upload speeds 1/3 of their download speeds.

Is your router on the floor tucked behind some old flywheels, or is it up high like on a bookcase?

   I don't know. I only know that Comcast wants me to buy the new super Modem like the Arris/ Motorola SB11 DOCSIS 3.0 to continue to get service at the new higher speeds. I want to do this in hope I can get wireless further into the garage then I'm getting now. The rumor is that Comcast wants to advertise that that have all these thousands of new hot spots. Apparently they use your modem, but not your channel.  What do I know?

i recommend one of these too

Also I hard line (rj45) all streaming devices (roku, boxee, smart tv) rather than streaming wirelessly

I updated all my computers (laptop & desktop) network cards to wireless 802.11ac (from 802.11n) essentially doubling download and upload speeds.

These updates will give you a great connectivtity, however the best internet in the world will not fix your computers (if you have an outdated PC) inability to crunch the numbers.

My 00010 cents
