Its been stable for some time, my email client used to complain quite often. Then recently, it appeared my Charter email account was not behaving reliably. Will have to see how this merger goes.

   Interesting that my iCloud and gMail accounts worked fine.

I have no other options here except perhaps DSL and I am not going to bother with that since I turned off landline a long time ago.

I was a charter cable member for all of one month because the service was 
substandard.  I had the 125 meg down 25 up and the network seemed congested to 
me.  Maybe with the merger things will improve.

  Charter now Spectrum. Standard Internet, think the slowest which still to me 
is overpriced.

What type of service do you have off hand?

Which provider?

 Ok yes makes sense. But then if I run a test from my provider it might look 
good while its actually on the low end of the speed dial so I may be a skeptic 
here. I think I will leave myself in the dark, what I do not know cannot hurt 
me.

You know things like that are hit and miss.  You’re testing the whole network 
between you and the speed test server rather than the speed of any specific 
link so you might get some idea but it depends on network conditions and any 
number of things.

If you used Comcast for example you might want to use their speed test which 
may be a better indicator but it may give you a rough idea.

Thanks

Scott,
Is Speedtest.com a reliable way to measure performance? I am happy with the 
Netgear router but am curious to know if this site would provide meaningful 
data.

Most routers are very doable from the web interfaces.

The ones I’d suggest are the Netgear Nighthawk 7800 series or the DLink 
DIR-897/lr or Asus has an 88U model that is highly rated although I have not 
tried it’s web interface personally.

Thanks
Scott

Hi, Sorry in advance for the long post! My friend brought over his
Linksus 5400 802.11AC router and I was blown away with the difference
between his router and mine on my internet connection. For a long time
he has been saying my Apple Airport Extreme is slow. So, I'm thinking
about replacing my Airport Extreme. I don't want a Linksus but am
considering Asus and Netgear. Does anybody on the list know which
router software is accessible with voiceover? If not, does anybody
know of one that's usable with Jaws or SA under windows?
Thanks Jeff
