30 miles south of LA, my choices were:
The TMo had more than double the speed. We need competition in this space. All the legacy companies are fat, slow, and lazy.
But latency. If you're into online gaming, that would be a detriment.
Also I guarantee most people are still ok on 30Mbps. A 1080p Netflix stream consumes like 4Mbps.
I was concerned about latency too but no difference and I've had it for I think a year now. Legitimately the best value for decent internet in my area.
That's fair, it only matters if you're extremely competitive like competitive FPS etc. I'm too old to care that much anymore 🤣
I mean I played Apex at the time. Ping remained at 40-50 towards the nearest server. Probably says more about the state of the infrastructure though.
Edit: Distance to server was about 1k miles for reference.
That's prolly what the long would be anyway with server that far lol. Sound like distance issue here
