I am still trying to figure out why I have to pay my ISP $10/mo to use my own modem, or $20/mo for one they provide and $30 if I want them to enable wifi on their modem.
Sounds like a way to hide the full price of the internet plan. Restaurants do this in some big cities like in San Francisco… They add junk fees like “5% employee health care mandate” rather than just increasing the menu prices.
It’s some bullshit is what it is. Fortunately I told them to pound sand and I just test the limits of my seemingly truly unlimited mobile hotspot. Funny thing is my neighbor who has the ONLY ISP WE CAN HAVE (because if building contracts) came to ask if I was having issues with the ISP because they have to keep coming out here and it fixes nothing or they say it’s not on them (the company) it’s something you (neighbor) are doing". I’ve had pretty similar experiences with this company at other rentals I’ve been in, but anyway to make a boring story short I check their routers Internet “uptime” reports and it was pretty abysmal. We are talking like 5-12 brown outs a week. All of which occurred within the time window of 09:00-18:00. My phone’s hotspot? Consistently over 700/30 and under $70/mo total. These bastards need to go out 'protection agencies" have failed us time and time again.
