Flow Internet Thread

[jaithon]

Kronik, so in essence, nothing is wrong with the modem then? But a drop in network speed by more than half tho?

[Kronik]

Yeah well that's the limitations of using WiFi, once your router is positioned properly in the house to give maximum coverage, you should be able to use the 5ghz right through

[ragzinc]

Anyone having serious internet service issues right now?

Few weeks to months now flow "pack ah chit" service...not even bothering to call dem again "40mbps" service and buffer everything ..used a 7mbps Novo service by family and feeling like dialup I using home vs his Novo connection
Signed up for anyting fiber that comes my way fist will get my $$ instead

Flow users use testmy.net and will see vs what the mass use speedtest.net

A WHILE NOW FLOW INCONSISTENT

[felix]

horrible for the last two days oh gosh
cunupia
it keeps cutting off

[hydroep]

Has been pretty consistent in Sando proper but had an outage for a couple of hours yesterday afternoon.

Since then no problems.

[EFFECTIC DESIGNS]

Ever since they had upgraded me to the 60mb I never had issues with Flow but before this I would always have disconnect issues. I remember those days what a nightmare. Currently on the 100mb package and never an issue well 0.5% of the time there is an issue but I can live with that.

That is correct.

Nothing is wrong with the modem. The advertised speeds are via ethernet. If you were to connect directly to your modem via an ethernet cable, you should see the full speed there.

WiFi would never be as fast as a wired connection. That's just the laws of physics.

Every year WiFi tech is getting faster, but a wired connection is always supreme.

Anybody else getting nun in the East?

[zaboca]

After having more downtime than uptime for the last 2 months and the technicians saying that it's nothing wrong on their end, they finally came and replaced the modem. So far no issues at all I will continue monitoring.

mine was fine all evening #Arima

Mines was down for about 24-30 hours seemed to be an issues in my area itself where only 13 out of the 100 on the split was online.

Worst experience i had with flow to date, had to use my next door digicel connection which was terrible tbh

System was down yesterday afternoon for approximately 10 hours. The modem couldn't "detect/resolve" topology or something so.

That's the second breakdown in less than two weeks in what has traditionally been a stable area.

Hope this isn't a sign of things to come...

What you mean by bridges?

Acting as a modem, and not a router?

Yes, correct

Yes it can, call flow and tell them you want to use your own router. They will then place the modem in “modem mode”

The light would move from blue to purple.

If your using static IP you need to babe the MAC address or the router you plan to use
