I don’t care for ISP-provided routers, so when I first heard about fiber, I was a little concerned about finding a router that has an SFP port… but Ting installs a little device (maybe it’s called a modem, I don’t know) that has fiber coming in and ethernet coming out, plug the ethernet into a router and it’s good to go.
TING SPEEDTEST UPGRADE
Usually, I’m docked in on an ethernet port, but even going from 20 to 240 over wireless is a game-changer, so I don’t think there’s a need to upgrade to WiFi 6 yet. While I could get near gigabit down with cable, I’ve been capped at a 20mbps upload, so I’m looking forward to a faster upload. What I’m most excited about is the faster upload. My WiFi seems to max out around 240/240… I never imagined I’d see the day where Internet is faster than my wireless infrastructure! I’m still running WiFi 5.
It is 970/980 on Josh’s computer, but the speeds come in around 730/845 for me due to the old age of my computer equipment, but I can survive.
