Yes, I did everything and tested everything with a tech : cables and all. The fault is not the cable or the modem is the router ( Netgear)
Yes, I wouldn’t pay a dime for for support, a faulty firmware or equipment is something they should recall and replace.
I can’t believe their customer support. Someday, they will pay the price of a terrible service and assistance.
Interestingly enough they say pay annually , ohhh you can’t pay for 6 months, ohhhh you can’t pay a one time fee.
Rest assured me we will fix it, we will change the speed.... sounded like one of those scam companies that want your name, number, email
And credit card number.
And...... if you don’t get the speed you want we will refund you ! Really ????
Don’t. Buy another router you will have the same problem. Jan Jan ja.... pure BS
You will spend twice, don’t get the new ones get this one fixed and all your devices will be covered
bs
Don’t be tricked !!!
Netgear is buggy
