Re: Two year customer coming up on renewal...
Hi,
The activation fee is only going to show up if someone is receiving equipment from us. If you signed up BYOD and have never contacted us to receive equipment, then you shouldn't ever see the 29.95 activation fee.
Also, we've worked with some other customers that also use the AC-211, and the multiple hello / incoming audio delay on pick up can sometimes be resolved by changing the adaptive jitter buffer setting in the device to half of the default (I believe the default is 100ms, but I can't remember off the top of my head). I can't guarantee this is going to be a fix for everyone that has the issue, but it's worked multiple times in the past for people with that box, and at the very least it's worth trying if this issue has been a continual annoyance.

| just for grins -put the 211 in front of your router to test the "hello" effect. Remember to reset the modem, set the rated upload limit (drl?) i forget the field but accessible through the 'welcome' ui -set to 10% above your advertised upload rate. Last do a soft reset. Takes 5 minutes & couldn't hurt. |

| i can't put it in front of my router. my router is an Actiontec FiOS router using MOCA (co-ax). It is on it's own LAN segment behind the Actiontec though, not sharing it with any of the other PCs. The only other thing I can think of is to put it in the DMZ, but I'd rather not...
