I am using the aztech 1015ew(s) black modem wireless router. The wireless range is bad. I revert back to 1000 aztech modem with my own router

Can the 10Mbps speed be achieved with the Aztech 1000ER (the current one used) if we decide not to replace with the 1015EW??

I was given this 1015EW too when I recontracted with the Retention Dept for the same $23.45 one year contract just this week.

I was told by the Retention Dept cso that the 10Mbps speed may not be reached with the 1000ER.

1) was offered 23.45 for a year. No freebies. quaterly residential line rental charge of 30.
2) Or, 28.90 for 2 years. No freebies. Residential line charges waived.

Seems like the 2 years deal is the better one . Notwithstanding the fact that fibre plans rate will drop during this period.

thanks,cause when i run speed test for my 6mbps ,i sometimess can get 1mbps so i thought they might have upgrade their speed,i read through some post,they say they get download speed like 18mbps on their 15mbps,is that true?if so i might want to upgrade to 15mbps instead of 10mbps since their upload speed around the same

speed will varies.....my 10m at times do speedtest can hit 11m and above but lower than 12m. Then at times can only hit 9m+. Home wise 10m or 15m shld be more than enough bandwidth.

"out of contract"...so how much are they billing you, since outside of contract, the price reverts to their full pricing? Am I right?

 

[stsilverbullet73]

64.89 lor. If i go for 10 mbps @ 23$ i suppose they will consider it as a break up of 3 services? Appreciate inputs from fellow forummers if i should proceed. 6mbps is satisfactory for me so far.

Just dont want to lose all the minor minor bill rebates from mio package which amts to quite a bit lol

 

[tinhill]

anyone tried calling? my contract expiring soon too.

Have you tried yourself?

$64.89 for 6m, is your hse FO ready to connect. If ready, might as well switch to FO plan.

sorry for asking, can I know what is "not good" about this modem? I am trying to do a recontract too so would probably be offered the same. Thanks!
