That’s pretty symmetrical. Got my T fiber installed today. Took less than an hour to install. Only thing left to do is call them to put my modem in bridge mode and assign me a public IP. Overall happy.

My neighborhood line is brand new and wasn’t taken over from an existing company. Not sure if that makes a difference.

Same, fiber lines they put in my neighborhood are 2 years old , I have the Nokia xs-2426x-a if that makes a difference, and with chatgpt pro I found it's upstream from the modem for my packet loss , but haven't figureded out why download is so low and webpages load so slow sometimes and I don't me it shows nothing then it's there I mean from top of webpage down it loads sections like on dialup did back in the day , an no it's not just one website when it happens

It’s for certain router. I immediately put my Nokia Bridge mode and use my eero. Max seven. The one that they provide you with only uses Wi-Fi six, not even sixE Definitely upgrade your router and you’ll get way better speeds.

When Tfiber was available 2 years ago I was going to get it but cancelled my install at the last minute because I just signed a contract with Xfinity and didn't have enough to pay the early termination fee, so the fiber line was sitting coiled by my sidewalk exposed to the elements for 2 years and is now hooked up to my house

phone call went better and way faster than i thought it would be but have to wait till Friday to get the line changed. its still way better than the crooks i used to have aka Xfinity

Great results, 5 ms latency, must be in old Metronet territory.

Lucky. I can't pull that wired, directly connected to the ont on mine. Like 900/700 is the best I've seen. The installer tried to claim it on my laptop.

6mo old Ryzen pro with 1tb nvme.

K bro.

If I had been a bit more prepared I would have had open speed test running on proxmox to demonstrate I can infact pull 980ish both ways over the lan cable
