The dodgy WiFi gear from my fiber provider requires a hard re-set at least once a week. I had to do that just today.
I have no idea how you put up with that. I would not accept that from any ISP router. If my ISP router has any issue I can ship it back for free and receive a brand new one a few days later. There should also be options for bringing your own router.
Fiber gear is a little different and I'd rather deal with this than the bullshit data caps and price hike games with Comcast. 😉
I have fiber, can’t even remember the last time my internet went down. It’s not a fiber thing, it sounds like a shitty hardware thing.
It's definitely a shitty hardware thing.
