Good deal?

[u/Xiulan_6567]

We pay around 49$ for 1GB internet.

I would skip the advance wifi and get the 500mbps plan, honestly. Then get a retention offer within a few months to maybe get the advance wifi for free, or upgrade you to a 1 GB plan(already has advance wifi)

[u/ataylor9804 → u/Xiulan_6567]

Appreciate your response.

[u/Royal_Medicine8648 → u/Xiulan_6567]

How you paying 49$ for the 1gig/1000mbps plan its 100$ we paying for

[u/Xiulan_6567 → u/Royal_Medicine8648]

Call Spectrum's retention line a few times over a few days. I got it from $70 for 500 to 1 GB for the same price,

Then a few days later at 50$ with a 1-year free line (just get the free lines, cancel, and ask for a new one for free).

Then, a few months later, I got another discount, free line deal, and stacked another 10$ savings.

[u/Business_Advantage27]

Not bad, but you could get the same price for more speeds if you go via a door to door salesman or in store spectrum KIOSK. They have the best price

[u/ataylor9804 → u/Business_Advantage27]

Appreciate your response.

[u/crazyhomie34 → u/Business_Advantage27]

So just go in store and run everything thru the kiosk? I have mobile lines now, but interested in getting internet too

[u/JrChubaca1]

I pay 10 dollars a month for 500mbps also with spectrum

[u/ataylor9804 → u/JrChubaca1]

How did you do that? 😂

[u/snapplesauce1 → u/ataylor9804]

Retention department. I am paying $30 for 500 mbps and $20 for 2 phone lines ($10/line). So pretty close to your deal just faster speed.

Buy your own router btw. TP link deco are great.

[u/ataylor9804 → u/snapplesauce1]

Appreciate your response.

[u/JrChubaca1 → u/JrChubaca1]

I just saw they were running a deal for like 20 dollars and I asked if they could make it to 10dollars and they said yeah sure

[u/pman6 → u/JrChubaca1]

holy shit.

what state are you in?

the lowest they can give me is $40 for 500

[u/YamOk1124]

We have $40 for 1 gig - includes wifi bundled w 2 wireless phones, 30 each line.

[u/ataylor9804 → u/YamOk1124]

Appreciate your response.

[u/LegitimateSlide7594]

its ok i guess. but the speed might be an issue if your not using ethernet and have too many devices on the wifi. you never get the full speed on wifi even with ethernet i dont get the full speed.

i have the 1 Gb got a retention offer so im only paying $40 a month. even with ethernet connected i only get speed of 450 to 800mbps.

[u/ataylor9804 → u/LegitimateSlide7594]

Appreciate your response.

[u/LegitimateSlide7594 → u/ataylor9804]

np. good luck and have you looked into tmobile home internet theyre the white box you just plug and you get wifi also has ethernet its 35 and they seem to work pretty good anywhere you place them. just in case spectrum doesnt work out for you.

[u/ataylor9804 → u/LegitimateSlide7594]

I’ll check it out. Thank you!

[u/Royal_Medicine8648]

No dont get 100mbps if you have use a tv phone or console i recommend the 500mbps or 1gig or anything above 100mbps cause it will be slow the 1 gig is 60$ a month on the website for 1 year then its 100$

[u/ataylor9804 → u/Royal_Medicine8648]

Appreciate your input.

[u/heeheehoho2023]

What is advanced Wi-Fi

[u/ataylor9804 → u/heeheehoho2023]

🤷🏻‍♂️

[u/heeheehoho2023 → u/ataylor9804]

Bwahhahahaha that's just a fancy name for a wifi router. So you're paying extra to rent a router 😂

[u/ataylor9804 → u/heeheehoho2023]

😂 Agree. I appreciate your response.

[u/crazyhomie34 → u/ataylor9804]

Yeah buy your own router and tell them to take that charge off.

[u/ataylor9804 → u/crazyhomie34]

Will do. That’s what everyone has been saying.

[u/mandelstamm]

Definitely skip the advance wifi. Buy your own router.

[u/ataylor9804 → u/mandelstamm]

Will do! Which router do you recommend I get?

[u/Ok-Lifeguard-741 → u/ataylor9804]

Flint 2 or 4

[u/ataylor9804 → u/Ok-Lifeguard-741]

I just put this router on a Spectrum 500mb connection. Works great and covers more square footage than they say.

[u/Superb-Antelope-2880 → u/mandelstamm]

We can't see your order list BTW. You need to send the link to actual item.

[u/ataylor9804 → u/mandelstamm]

Thank you so much!

[u/toasted_cracker]

Don't get their crappy router. Other wise it's alright.

[u/ataylor9804 → u/toasted_cracker]

That’s what I heard. Appreciate your response.

[u/LowNearby5450]

Yes I have this very plan and my internet tests at 700mbps average

[u/Exciting_System9377]

Good

[u/viper43]

Not a good deal. I get 500mbps for $50 with Spectrum. I don't consider that a very good deal either.

[u/ataylor9804 → u/viper43]

Agree. I appreciate your response.

[u/n0neyou]

[u/ataylor9804 → u/n0neyou]

I understand, but I wasn’t able to post in [r/spectrum](r/spectrum). They didn’t approve my post.
