Just to be clear, when you say sign up, you mean the 2 year agreement? I'm in section 4 but I signed mine maybe in early October. I was meaning to ask and I'm sorry if the question has been asked already but the reduced price for the first year of service starts when service starts, not when the agreement was signed, correct?

So READY!!! The internet has been hardly passable this week with Frontier... Come on Section 4

Probably by now UIA has two sections done. Is going on to the next section contingent on getting all of the section 1 and 2 hookups done first? IOWs, would a "johnny come lately" in Section 1 or 2 will have to done first prior going onto the rest of sections?

Serious Netgear vulnerabilities;

https://securityledger.com/2016/12/vulnerability-prompts-warning-stop-using-netgear-wifi-routers/
Proof-of-concept exploit code was released by a Twitter user who, according to the article, said "he informed Netgear of the flaw more than four months ago, but did not hear back from the company since then."

No fix (not surprising given it's Netgear).. CERT says to just turn off the WiFi..

How is Section 2 looking for going live tomorrow on the 15th. I believe I read the 15th was the new projected date.

Hughes Net is driving me crazy with it's Data cap that I hit after 1-2 weeks every month. I miss Netflix

.

Super excited for this internet!

Our Company will NOT use Netgear as we've had too many issues. I always recommend Cisco routers and switches.

FWIW, Netgear made the following announcement (Beta software available for download):

Frontier thinks my DSL line terminates at a Chevron/Waygo near Big Bear.

Wes, please hurry!

When not using Apple products at home (knock silicone, I've replaced an Apple router due to defect), I'm an ASUS fan here at the lab - routers and switches. The electronic discard in our lab has some dead Linksys routers that didn't last long at all. Will never buy them again.

When not using Apple products at home..

I have enjoyed the Apple WiFi access points over the years.. I have one at home and at the office in Wrightwood and they are consistently fast. I can get 400 to 600 Mbps out of it if I an reasonably close.. pretty good, but sadly Apple is getting out of that business.

I am about to receive the Google Whole Home Coverage Router package https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01MAW2294/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Like a lot of people we have a 2 story home up here and it is hard if not impossible to get the entire house covered with one WiFi. There is always some trade off. I thought I would get one of these packages and try it out. I did run an Ethernet wire to my TV and boy that is just so good. I am wondering if the Google WiFi can bridge over the Ethernet, that would be nice.

Great price point on the Google product. Let everyone know how it works. In our place I have an Airport Extreme and then and Airport Express (in bridge mode? not at the house to check). Works like a charm. Our WiFi was ok, but needed another router "slave" to be able to plug in the outdoor irrigation where it comes into the house so that I can access it with my iPhone on the home WiFi. Really neat to be able to turn on/off the stations when unplugging drippers regularly.

For those that might consider the Google product below, note that it does not have a USB part (as I read it), so if you have a non-wireless printer connected to your router for wireless printing, it won't be a good fit for you.

We are opening a maintenance window on Wednesday the 21st from 8am to 12pm. The Internet will be down for Section 1 during that time. We are splicing in Section 2 to our main feed. We will not need to do this for subsequent sections however.

Thanks for your patience and understanding,
