Lol, this is great to know but I live in downtown Dallas within spitting distance of AT&T world headquarters and literally the only "high speed" provider available to me is Spectrum (I can't explain why AT&T itself can't provide service to someone in walking distance of their own corporate headquarters compound - do they even provide service to themselves?). It goes out on me all the damn time. Heck, I lost service a few weeks back because someone moving into the house next door accidentally gave the wrong address when signing up for a new service account and Spectrum canceled my account, assuming I'd moved out since apparently someone else was moving into my house.
I have never been madder at a service provider of any service. But there is nothing I can do, at least not for six more months until Starlink finally goes online in my area and sends me a dish.
This in what? The heart of the 4th largest metro area in the richest nation on the planet? Maybe this is legitimately not a problem in most of the developed world, but U.S. residential communications infrastructure is amazingly pathetic.
