You lucky , the flow representative said I should try the new package for a month to see if I liked it and I could revert after , when I called to revert because there was no difference , they said that package no longer exists . Flow the MC WORST! I will forever be salty about that , if they call and hit you the same shot like me say no thanks. This was the 50mpbs at $245 or so .

That's on wifi or lan cable?

i used to use that in the beginning, barely getting 30mb download speed, horrible and the range was even worst. Decided to buy a router to work as an access point for my other section of the house, used to get around 50mb download thru this. gaming was horrible af. this was a wireless connection.
decided to run an ethernet cable from my flow unit straight to my pc, 100ft, coiled the excess. bumped from the 50mb with a poor ping to 160-190mb. Night and day difference, online gaming was exceptional, u cant believe the experience.
now for the wifi, used that same 100ft cable now and connected to a gigabit switch, connected a hardwire connection to the wifi access point, topping out at 100mb 2.4, 140mb 5ghz. but this access point is a wizz 250$ junk unit ac1200, worked good for the 2plus years im using it, but now im growing into a better system.
so if i had to do it again, disable everything on the flow unit, connect to a premium router via hardline and yuh bad. i making do with what hardware i have.

moca is for providing a data connection over the coax wiring. The main use is getting data to Flow's cableTV boxes for things like replay TV, cloud recordings, TV guide, video on demand, etc.
If you find your cable box not showing the TV Guide etc, rebooting the modem and then rebooting the cable box usually solves it.

Dizzy28 wrote:Flow's service has gotten pretty spotty. Service drops albeit for a few minutes but more frequently now and at random times. Last night at around 12 service fell. I switched off the modem/router till this morning and just switched on the data on my phone (my mobile billing cycle ends on Friday anyhows and with WFH I basically only use call minutes).
