Flow Internet Thread

[EFFECTIC DESIGNS]

I also have a serious issue with TSTT Throttling my video streaming bandwidth.

You can get full speed on torrent but try to stream a youtube video in more than 144P and it almost always runs youtube at dial up speed. Yet it can download a torrent at HD speed

Also WHERE ARE YOU ALL getting this 15MB package from?

http://discoverflow.co/trinidad/interne ... d-packages

My father also has flow for $200 a month and he gets 10MB, he is in El Dorado.

One question anybody knows if FLOW has a regular non WIFI modem that you get free when you sign up for internet?

Its $249 for installation. And $150 for WIFI modem.
But are all their modems WIFI or they have free non WIFI modems? I already have a WIFI router.

BTW FLOW has 2MB for $139 a month.

Why would anyone on this planet pay TSTT $233 for 2MB if there is flow in their Area?

Do u take cable from FLOW as well? If so and u take 10Mb internet as well, it will be 200+250. If u want a phone line it is $15 extra if u have the internet. That gives $465.

With TSTT the equivalent blink bundle will cost $399+vat (459) for more channels, 5Mb internet and free tstt calls.

From online gaming with friends, they always complain of lag with their 20Mb flow connection while my is great! So it depends on what u use Ur connection for to really get the best plan.

When I signed up a while ago, I got a free upgrade to 10Mb, and 3mths HBO. It was a no brainer for me as I usually average about 12Mb and almost no lag!

^ First off I don't use telephones and I don't watch TV.

All I want is FLOW Internet a 10MB connection alone.

And I never had flow before. so am curious if I really hadda pay that $150 for the WIFI modem or they give u a free non wifi modem?

Flow ran lines in my area couple months ago, this was never digital before. So I assume it would work great for me? Plus my area will have much less people using internet access its mostly Agriculture.

I have access to Digicel Fibre, Flow Fibre and TSTT. But flow is my only alternative to TSTT, however my online gaming almost always work great with TSTT but lately TSTT giving lots of issues.

ED you get a free wired modem, I took the wired and using a router as my tech friend told me that the wireless are problematic. As of now my tstt modem unplug and park up lol, enjoying my new flow connection

Sweet!!

Is the same Arris brand that flow uses for the wired modem aswell?

Hoss I have a Zhone modem from TSTT the real old version it runs hotter than a toaster, it literally raises the temperature in my room by a degree Celsius yes lol.

[hustla_ambition101]

ping steampowered.com

can someone type that in command prompt and let me know what the latency is with flow?

I get 112ms with TSTT

[hustla_ambition101]

average of 65ms

[Swisha]

110ms

[fouljuice]

App isn't out yet to public we're currently testing it on testflight but however it can be tested on Facebook beta server I don't want to add link here Incase of any advertising rules so msg me if interested

The reason I ask is because I used to play a game a few months ago and at exactly 6:00pm, it would start to run like so much shiit it was unplayable, and at 2:00am it would go back to normal, and for the whole 48 hours of Saturday and Sunday it would work normal. I thought it was the game servers, but now that you mention that same 6pm-2am time frame, I see the pattern.

Flow is always kinda crappy during peak times

68

Holy sheit

thats the speed of light. So bad TSTT is? and you would think since they have fibre from here to Miami that would really be all it takes.

So its the copper around the country that adds so much latency? damn

Yea same pattern, I mean other games run normal like league dota.. But this one game always has issue around 6pm during the week and you're right weekend is fine flow better fix their nonsense cause it only at peak hour majority of my developers and staff members on my server are on at that time and I'm unavailable which forces me to use VPN

You're running on this,.....literally

[EFFECTIC DESIGNS]

^ LOL I see well this explains a lot

[Kronik]

After the last set of outages about a week back, the one Amber light on my router is now green, so all the lights green now. Can't remember which light it was. They did an upgrade or what?
Located in California

[Swisha]

noticed the same on my modem as well

[shaq090]

its sad people dont know how the internet and "speed" works.....

[EFFECTIC DESIGNS]

ok well I think I know how it works.

Also does anyone know how FLOW's network is constructed?

How much copper are we talking about exactly? The lines on the pole is Fibre right? so besides the short coax copper cable coming into your house, what other copper lines is this passing when it travels to say California? or UK?

These pings look delicious with flow, I cant believe its actually 68ms to Valve headquarters in the US.

Anyone knows what pings so you can get to German Servers in Battlefield 4?

[EFFECTIC DESIGNS]

And when compared to TSTT how much copper and rusty stuff we are talking about?

[EFFECTIC DESIGNS]

Could someone with flow click this link and tell me how much MS ping you seeing displayed?

http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf4/se ... -SERVER-5/

I get 151 ms

Please also do a refresh on the page just to be safe cause sometimes I get a false 220ms ping reading.

[EFFECTIC DESIGNS]

^ you sure? it takes a few seconds to come up like 4 seconds.

saying 165ms ping for me now. hmm

[EFFECTIC DESIGNS]

you could also type

ping tbgclan.com

I believe the site on the same server. I get a whopping 200ms

[Kronik]
