internet guy came, hopefully the end of the literal unusuable internet arc
>when 50/15 is considered good
I was getting 0.5, 0.5
but fr, what did he even say
I'll take it!
idk I left
we replaced our router
"ah yeah, we fucked up, sorry about the last 2 months of hell"
with a newer one
the router should have had no impact
appak
we also moved the motem
since it was surrounded by concrete before
I'm still convinced it's an issue on your ISP's end
Yeah that is for sure the case too
where they're not handshaking correctly
they keep having issues
but at the very least, what was done has improved my internet by a factor of 10 so
whatever
true
it took a bit to uh
hook up
lmao
I'll give you the new number in a second
upload went down, down went way up
Pika, what brand router do you have?
I forget, give me a second and I can give you the old one and the new one

the streamer house I'm building, which is raw undeveloped land rn
still had 2.5gb service available to it
2500/2500
2000/2000
still though
Pika rents it
at least he rented the old one
idk about what you guys replaced it with
Google says it's ~$10CAD/month to rent
also Pika
unirronically
this old router of yours, the one they provied you
looks pretty good
other than it's locked down
it's actually got full gigabit switching on-board
with 4 eth ports
Sorry i had to step away
no trunking
I couldn't use ethernet for the old one
so that's meaningless for me
I just mean, it's not a piece of crap

support.shaw.cathis is my new router I think
I think its the gen 2 I have
the router is upstairs, I can't easily run ethernet to my pc from there
without some weird wire setup across the house
my moms pc is older and only has ethernet, so it has to be near the router
hey look
it's got onboard 2.5gbe
WAIT
wtf is the point of """"wifi 6""""
if it's still just dual band
