Re: Should I switch to Charter from AT&T? I just got Charter installed. Are there any tweaks I need to make to get max speed? My modem is currently connected to my ASUS N66R router. |

| The only "tweak" I can think of to suggest is to ensure you're using WPA2-AES (rather than TKIP) if you can. I got much better throughput on my WiFi connection with AES. There is information around why that is so I'm not going to bother rehashing it. |

Ya, make all connections wired gigabit.

| Ok, I guess there are no real tweaks. Thanks for the help. |
|
| The better question is what speeds are you seeing on your new install? If you're seeing 30mbps or close on that plan then there's nothing to tweak.... |

| I am getting between 30 and 35. |

That's exactly where you should be on the 30mbps tier. Charter only offers 30 & 100mbit residential tiers at this time. |

| What's kinda weird is when I did my first speed tests I was shown to be in my home town. But the next day after I rebooted a couple of times (trying to figure out how to login to the modem), the speed tests have me halfway across the state as my location. |
