I wanted to speak to the counter clerk, because I still want the internet. My verizon wireless signal is too weak for streaming. I bought a router/modem that's compatible. I just need a hookup.
This is exactly what I attempted to accomplish. Clerk took all old equipment, checked it in as returned, and sold me am internet only connection for $99/month. I gave him the modem/router MAC Address and he told me I was all set. Came home, reset the modem/router, tried to connect. It states I'm connected with no internet. WI-FI allows me to connect, but no browsing. :bummed:
 
Electrical storm left us with zero service. The TiVo box is fine so we can still watch all DVR’d shows. But all normal disconnects and resets didn’t help.

After being hung up on by chat bot, phone bot, and the first tech human that answered phone I finally got a helpful lady. She not only hooked me up with a tech visit ticket for today,?she credited my account $15. Now to see how helpful the tech visit becomes.

I'm still wondering what that $18/month "High Speed Network Recovery Fee" is doing for us :rolleyes:
It isn't suppose to do anything for you, it is for the "provider" to recoup the "provider's" contribution to the mandated Universal Service Fund.

While I don't experience downtime much for INTERNET - loss of TV signal happens often. And totally unpredictable, although happening more frequently.

So essentially, it is funding for others to get free high speed internet access... Lovely
Kind of sort of, it isn't just high speed internet. The money that they pay into the USF is disbursed by USAC via four programs - Lifeline, E-Rate, High Cost, and Rural Health Care. The money you pay is reimbursing Breezeline for their compliance with the law.

Hey, question.

We are on Verizon. For the last few weeks, we have had to turn off our Breezeline WiFi on our phone if we want to make or receive a call.

Anyone else having an issue like this?

I have Verizon and Breezeline. My signal is so weak that it usually switches to WiFi calling automatically. You can change settings in your phone to allow WiFi calling and it becomes fairly seamless.

Edit: I just checked and it's currently off, but I don't use my phone as a phone. I despise talking and prefer texting so I have things in writing to revisit if needed.

Same - except in a couple days, we're going to have Xfinity.

Of course, that doesn't change the fact that Verizon reception at our HOUSE sucks so bad, we MUST rely on wi-fi. Happens all the time with guests at our house.

Well this pisses me off - a week or so ago, Xfinity said "good news! we are in your area" and I began the process of setting it up, going all the way through and scheduling an install.

Nobody shows up. Contacted them - nope, no record of an order.

Go BACK to Xfinity - and it says, sorry, NOT in your area yet.

WTF?
