Re: 5G Speeds are a joke
Here we are several years later form the original post, and yep... 5G is still an expensive for what you get joke. The most over-hyped, under-delivered promise I can remember from all the carriers. I have "5G Home Internet" thru both T-Mobile and Verizon. The T-Mo system is so absurdly slow that it is used as a desperate fail-over backup. It's like going back to the 56K modem days... The Verizon system isn't tremendously better but it's enough that we made it primary. If my wife didn't work 100% from home, I'd ditch T-Mo altogether but she can't afford to be without some type of connection.41Views0likes0CommentsRe: How do I change the IP to other IP than 192.168.12.x?
Hi PTNETWORK, Thanks for the response! I got the same answer from a support rep today. The level 1 rep I spoke with didn’t really understand the issue (he kept going back to / thinking it’s a wifi connectivity issue...) until I explained it 3 different ways. Finally he said it’s not possible. I asked him to submit a change request, which he said he would; and he said that all support calls are recorded (and inferred all were listened to - highly doubtful) and my query and suggestion would be heard. We’ll see. I’ve never seen a router that didn’t allow the user to change its IP address and/or its DHCP range. While I like the service, this is a HUGE issue that needs to be addressed. It can be a show-stopper for some, and a real pain for most. Let’s hope a firmware update will do it and that they actually do address the issue.172Views3likes0Comments
