And, yes, I'm chicken to test/try selecting the ch all the way, only to find I lose FE phone.
Hey McFly, are you Chicken?, buc buc buc No one calls me Chicken ( pushes remote button ) In case you don't get the humor, its from the Back to the future movies OK, no more buk, buk, buk, brrr-awk for me ! Ordered on the tv and 15 min later had the "I feel the need for speed" upgrade.
I'm definitely a happy camper! According to Speedtest, faster than 97% of the U.S.
First, I confirmed w/tech support that this doesn't change any of your existing packages, promotions, etc. and that FE phone isn't changed.
My previous 25/15 was giving me 30.66/19.85 on Speedtest. |

said by navyson:Just got off the phone with Trendnet reps.
After logging on to the Trendnet site, he changed a few settings.
The best speedtest result I have gotten since is 44/25 even though my laptop is right beside the WAP. I have received 58/25 when I hardwire the laptop
He says that's the best he can do.
I tested using both the mixed b/g/n and a straight N mode and the speedtest results are the same.
I moved it back to the mixed mode since my gf computer is b/g.
Not sure what happened between yesterday and today. Tonight, all my speed tests on my laptop are hoovering around 60 down and 30 up on Speakeasy after giving me such a hard time yesterday.
These are great speeds with the WAP in the basement while the laptop being one floor up. |

I've got a triple play bundle with 35/35 Internet service.
I don't see any value in paying $10 to 'upgrade' to 50/25. All I'd be doing is downgrading my upload speeds, since my 'fluffed' 35/35 clocks in at about 43/35. |

The deal isn't targeted to all customers only those at 3/1, 15/5 tiers |

I upgraded last night from 35/35. With that package I was getting 43/37. I'm now getting 59/39. |

Does anyone know if this shows up as a separate billing line?
Or do they completely change what your internet base billing is? |

The people with the 3/1 packages can they upgrade to 50/25 for $10 more? |
|
| reply to DAVIDGR
verizon is soo annoying, the tier should be at least 50/35 or 50/50 so they could get all those on the 35/35 tiers to jump.
For people who have 35/35 this is a real downgrade, why give up on symmetrical speeds for asymmetrical. |

Read the link in the OP...it states separate billing line, no other changes to your existing bundles, promos, discounts, etc. |

I didn't know FIOS had a 3/1 speed tier. |

| They do in my area. That is the lowest fios package you can get. |

kudos:1 | Yes if you have 3/1 which I believe was 54.99, for 10 bucks plus tax you can add 50/25 with this promo |

I'm on 35/35, and I got a popup screen asking me to "upgrade" to 50/25 for $10. This is a joke considering my wired speed is around 43/35. |

I have 25/25 and I'm wondering if anyone who has made the jump from that to the 50/25 feels it was worth the $10.00
