Please do. Also include size of house and modem/router placement if you don’t mind.

I have a business account with Cox that has a couple years left on the contract though.
I do I too at my office but this is going into my house.

With fiber upload speed is the same as download. Sometimes faster.

So my google WiFi won’t work?
I use my Google WiFi on my ATT 1gb connection. Gotta do the ole passthrough mode and whatnot. Now as far as throttling, that could be true.
My google wifi runs those tests every other day and I think my average download speed is 600-700 mbps and my average upload speed is faster at 700-800 mbps. This is plenty for me though and I have 32 wired and wireless devices on my network and I stream all of my TV (a lot in 4k too).

I am not in New Orleans, but have a new install of ATT fiber in the Watson area. Went in at $80/mo, got bumped to $90 at the year mark. Still totally worth it! Upload and download speeds are consistently in the 950mb range. All TVs are devices on on a 1 Gig network switch fed by the ATT router. My 1900 sq ft house has good reception throughout. Totally satisfied.

quote:90 is regular price. 80 is with the 10 dollar discount for the year. my year just past and i got on the chat online and said i wanted my discount back and they gave it to me.
It was $80 a week and a half ago, I would call them.
It should be (supposed to be) 1gb/1gb. If I get in the 950/950 range I would say it was a successful install.

My baw, CarRamrod 
OK, here we are at this point.
AT&T has done the install:
But there is a bandwidth issue, only getting 300down but 900up Tier2 support is having issue with their network so he is going to come back later this afternoon to call them and see what's up.
Your Test Results (Tested on 6/20/2018, 12:49:15 PM)
Download Speed HELP 349.3 Mbps (43662.5 KB/sec transfer rate)
Upload Speed HELP 915 Mbps (114375 KB/sec transfer rate)
Latency HELP 7 ms

Im just hoping this will push cox to bring their gigablast which has been coming soon for 4 years.
Posted on 6/20/18 at 6:35 pm to LEASTBAY
When I called Cox to cancel he tried to stongarm me by saying AT&T can only give you 25mb, he then tried to say why not downbgrade the speed to our 30mb plan for $60. I laughed and said I just got fiber installed from AT&T and he said, “service canceled” “have a nice day” and hung up on me.
frick Cox.

How is the WiFi coverage?
Posted on 6/20/18 at 7:30 pm to tilco
Not as good as my Asus 1600ac but that’s why they give the mesh units. They come later which I am not sure why.
Posted on 6/20/18 at 8:11 pm to t00f
They give them out for free?
