Over the past few weeks, my internet has been nothing but crap. The max we have ever gotten in this household is approximately .96 mbps when only one person is on (sometimes we have 5+ devices on at once).
In July-August we got a notification that the equipment for FIOS would soon be built into our neighborhood, so we were going to put up with it until then. When you upgrade to FIOs, you get a new better crap router so I hesitated in spending money for a new router.
Lately, it's been even more than crap. Since we do not have the equipment for FIOS we have the fastest DSL service we can get with them (which is pretty cheap in cost). It's not that our internet is not reaching max download speeds, our connections around the house are often dropping out and the upload speed is almost approximately .005mbps at any given time. So one night I got really drunk and sent them about 100 notification requests for when FIOS gets implemented. Each time I sent one, my name column was a sentence telling them how much I hate them. The 100th one, I put in an essay into the name column explaining how much more I hate them and pretty much went on a drunken rant.
So we called them up because I like pushing my problems on verizon and they spent an hour with me doing what I already have done to finally say they will try a new router. I get the new router, hook all of the equipment up, it detects the DSL line, but no Fliippping interrrrennnnettt serrrviiiiccceee... So I called them up (pretty drunk too) to work on another solution and subliminally add the word FIOS into each sentence. It was like, my internet !!F!! is not working !!O!!. I have done these steps... !!I!! and I'm sure my DSL is ho!!S!!ed.
When all said and done, they figured out that it was a problem with the central box and they gave us two months of credit. But the router I have before is above crap, the new router that was sent is nothing but crap, the router we would get with FIOS will most likely be not as much crap but still crap if they ever implement FIOS. They don't want to fix the DSL problem because they don't support it anymore, So I need a router recommendation.
It just needs to fit these requirements:
-Isn't crap
-I don't care wtf firmware is on it
-Won't overheat like the e3000
-possible to have simultaneous n and g connectivity
-Isn't crap
-preferrably something that has a a lot of reviews on it
-prefer to have the modem not built into it like these crap ones verizon keeps sending us
-isn't crap
-recommend a modem that would not have without a doubt some problems.
Thanks!
