    My repoint to ES17 is done.  Promising for sure.

     

    As speeds can always go up and down on a whim, I will ride this for a week ro two before I say it is fixed for sure but apepars we should be good to go.

     

    Before the installer came over I had a about 1Mbps down.... and after, they are 24 and 17Mbps so far.

     

    What appears to have suffered in the switch back to ES17 is uploads so far.  I was getting better 2Mbps before the installer came over and now getting between 800K and 1Mbps.  I can live with that.  ;-)  

     

    So... so far so good.  Thanks Hughes for getting things back on track.

Lets hope at 9PM tonight things are still in the Mbps and not K.  If it can hold at a respectable #, even though less we know during peak time, that will be great!
