It is also funny that the ISP insists on giving one 300Mbps symmetrical bw, but then the technician only does setup WiFi, which is incapable of handling that. They don't install the LAN cables. It took me some months to do that on my own time and effort, with a temporary cable hanging from the lamps in the ceiling going to the computer room upstairs.
Your LAN connections are always your responsibility.
That is absurd when doing service to home customers that have no idea. But my point was rather on the absurd of saying "we give you 300 Mbps" and then only install WiFi. They install 300 and charge for it, when 50 would suffice. In fact, when you ask they tell you that of course, the installer has to install the LAN for you if you ask. They have to install the router on the place you tell them, and carry the cable from the ONT to the router several rooms away (not the cables from router to computers). But the installers deny this. Instead they place the router behind the TV, where it is useless. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 42.2 x86_64 "Malachite" (Minas Tirith))
