Longest power outage here was 4 days few years back and mobile network was unaffected. And I checked that the modem runs on 12 volts so I can easily hook it up to heavy-duty battery so that the internet will not go out even with power outage... combine that with laptop and no internetless times for me anymore! --- End quote --- God forbid you loose the internet!!!!!! ;D ;) --- End quote --- Yeah without internet I can be for a week or 2 easily as I have plenty of DVDs... Without electricity during summer after few days it gets boring... In the winter day or two goes before it gets dangerous. I'm full blown atheist who has very harsh opinion about religion and religious... ;) |

Well I got the new Internet today... looks promising. Promised speed was 100/50... currently getting 33/22, but it's sunday afternoon (16:15) and thus 4G is in high usage. Let's see what it gives during night. |

Well this is more promising: For some reason our house's walls block the upload signal sometimes. Usually it is around 23. My brother has the same contract on his mobile phone and he tried it outside and it gave result of 63/28 I ordered external 4G LGE aiming cross-polarisation antenna package (2 antennas that are set-up with 90 degree polarisation angle between them) with additional filters that remove all 2G and 3G signals and 11db boost per antenna. The package should arrive tomorrow. Ater installing them my connection should really speed up. |

Upgraded to fiber connection. I chose the 300/300 as it was OK compromise between price and speed. Run few speed tests and got bing of 15ms, and average speed of 309/301 |
