Exageration
And it doesn't matter if they have a router that's 10-years old: It's our fault their service isn't good.

I understand that this is an exaggeration, but no one asking for 100 meg internet has a 10-year-old router. It seems that routers are a lot like phones with a built-in obsolescence.

Re: Exageration
I'm a little bitter right now because I am dealing with an internet issue that I am almost certain boils down to the modem that I am renting from Comcast is starting to die.

Re: Exageration
@afwriter Does Comcast require you to rent their modems? You can usually buy a pretty good one for $100 or less. I picked one up at Walmart one day for $50 when somoene who remain nameless fried the one we had by spilling tea on it.

Re: Exageration
They don't require it, but it makes my life easier than buying one. If I ever switch back to Century Link (the only other option I have) I would probably buy my own.

Re: Exageration
@afwrtier But don't they add on a rental fee every month to the subscription cost? I noticed that Verizon does that, which is one of the things that makes its service a bit higher than Optimum's in my area -- those hidden and unspecified "equipment" charges.

Re: Exageration
The rental fee comes out to about one modem a year so I would save a little money by buying one but I don't have to worry about the modem that I bought becoming obsolete overnight which is why I choose to rent one for the time being.

@afwrtier do modems go obsolete that quicky? I don't think we ever had to upgrade our modem, though Optimum did send us some device to enable WiFi that I don't think we're using as we had already bought one.

Re: Exageration
Yes, modems do become obsolete rather quickly. Perhaps you don't notice but the performance is noticeable when you compare an old one to a new modem. It's the same with computers. Think how much better a new hardware equipment performs.

Re: Exageration
@Susan true, but the companies don't seem to offer to swap out your equipment all that often. I'm pretty sure they make a lot more than the cost of the entire modem in the course of the year they rent it to you.

Re: Exageration
Ariella: Things work differently in some countries here. Some companies will take the modem back after two years, which is about when you renew or not the contract, and will give you a new one. If they have updated the networks in your area, they will change all the modems in the area.

If you want to return the modem you got, they will recycle. One of the companies has a program that if you give your modem to a friend who wants the same service, your friend doesn't have to pay for a modem, so they get immediatelly connected with a discount. 

In Finland the networks are updated pretty often and companies update and upgrade the modems. Otherwise, you can experience problems if you have an older modem and an upgraded broadband. You know a move around Europe a lot and live in different places for extended periods of time. I have never found better broadband than in the Nordics and Baltics. Not even in the U.K. In the Nordic and Baltics you get excellent Internet: cheap and flies. The modems are 5G ready.

I have been working on a project recently to take older "modem/routers" to help get a new IT Infrastructure established--and we've pulled it off--although it is true that we see transformations on a consistent basis, I still think that we have to squeeze out life out of the olrder machines ASAP...and the team at https://www.keepod.com/ is another manifestation of it which I have tested it..and have told them I'd be pleased to serve an Ambassador.

Re: Exageration
I've always bought my own routers with CenturyLink and Xfinity but one has to be prepared for the installer to try to convince you that their router is needed, or know that the installer might not know how to install your equipment properly. I've run into that problem on each initial install. My understanding is an updated router might be needed if you're upgrading to a newer higher speed that the older router can't handle.

Re: Exageration
Ariella: Sure. Let's not forget a modem is also a piece of electronics. Once I experienced the power of soup. Don't ask me how some of the soup ended up on my keyboard. It was during the Holidays and I was  on a deadline due Jan 2.

This is to say that there was no one to fix my Mac, not much to do, just to wait. I tried everything, including putting rice all over the keyboard. They say it absorbs moisture. At the end, I got the keyboard changed and my Mac came back to life. But yeah, soup can be powerful as well. :/

Definitely. Now my work/office travel bag is much lighter. The MacBook Air is so slim I can even fit it in my travel handbag, which is great. I can't do that the MacBook Pro. And when I am somewhere for a longer period of time I take both with me because I am used to wroking with two monitors. Add Internet to that and a cup of tea.  

In a museum in Stockholm I saw a good collection of typewriters (yes, they are in museums already). There, you could see, as you say, some kind of desk typewriters and also portable typewriters. Because back in the day, business people also had to carry their writing tools, especially writers and journalists.

Reliability
> "Today a large portion of consumers have the speed they want -- they can stream all the video they want. They want reliability," Are customers (young or old) willing to pay more for reliability? I think a bit more for wireless ISPs with better coverage, but fixed broadband may not be able to get extra revenue from better reliability..?

As we have for the past two years, Light Reading will present our Cable Next-Gen Europe conference as a free digital symposium on June 21.
Charter has sparked RDOF work in all 24 states where it won bids. The cable op booked about $19 million in RDOF revenues in Q1, and expects to have about $9 million per month come in over the next ten years.
As we have for the past two years, Light Reading will stage the Cable Next-Gen Technologies & Strategies conference as a free digital event over two half-days in mid-March.
Launch of 2-Gig and 5-Gig FTTP tiers in 70-plus markets puts more pressure on cable ops to enhance their existing DOCSIS 3.1 network or accelerate their upgrade activity centered on the new DOCSIS 4.0 specs.

When your broadband business adds new services and connected devices, do they also add complexity, slowing customer support teams as they navigate multiple data sources to uncover connectivity issues? We’ve worked with hundreds of support teams to help them implement a subscriber experience management platform that gives greater visibility into subscriber issues. They can proactively troubleshoot amid complexity—improving the subscriber experience and raising customer satisfaction ratings like Net Promoter Scores.

Join this webinar with experts from Calix and global research leader Omdia who will share exclusive research about how you can:

  • Simplify management of numerous data sources with end-to-end visibility
  • Clear 90 percent of trouble calls in 24 hours and boost NPS +71 using predictive analytics, real-time insights and customer success practices
  • Avoid common bottlenecks when upgrading to proactive support to ease disruptions to subscribers during implementation
