Optimum is my TV and internet provider. They suck.
Internet went out about 7:00 pm last night. I was watching an old movie online.
It is currently 0840 local and the internet is still out. I'm connected on a mobile hotspot.
I called it in, and the answering machine told me that there is an outage in my area. I already knew that. No word on when it might be fixed, no indication of any sense of urgency. This is becoming a regular thing. For no apparent reason, the internet connection goes tits-up.
Optimum sucks.
Our small town ISP sucked so we got Starlink.
ReplyDeleteYes they do. And they are not cheap, either.
ReplyDeleteWe had Century Link here in Texas, which was terrible, who sold the business to Bright Speed, which I had on speed dial for all the outages). Bright speed let the service wither as they were now Optimum putting their money into fiber. They couldn’t understand why I didn’t want Optimum after all the prior outages…..
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear that.
ReplyDeleteApparently, Optimum is sub-optimal.
ReplyDeleteThere are no good options here; many people are going to Starlink for better more reliant service. I'm considering it.
