I wonder if any customers already at that speed getting any rebate.

count yourselves lucky until the next forced update.
This was forced from August 2021, with no option.
From 40MB to 75Mb on 23rd July 2020
Then to 75Mb October 2020
Then to 100MB August 2021
at ever increasing rates for a single pensioner who comfortably lived with 15Mb .

So Digicel does not play well with a certain range of internal static addresses? I'm trying to figure out how that make sense.....

a few weeks ago, I noticed my internal DHCP starting address was changed from 192.168.100.2 to 192.168.100.100. The router IP remained the same: 192.168.100.1

Didn't think nothing of it but all devices internally that had a static address under 192.168.100.100 stopped working even though I set it back to the original starting address of 100.2:

1. Minecraft server: 192.168.100.50 stopped working
2. Camera system remote viewing: 192.168.100.80 stopped working
3. Media server remote access: 192.168.100.90 stopped working
4. Chrome Remote Desktop (100.50 and 100.90) stopped working

Just changed all IP addresses to values over 100 and they ALL started working :|

Are they limiting something via subnetting? Hosting services not allowed for a certain range of addresses? This does not make sense as all other "normal" devices such as PCs, phones work fine with an address under 192.168.100.100.

Didn't ask support just yet (they just gonna put me onto an engineer)....wanted to know if anyone here experienced something similar.

stev, that's why you should always ditch the ISP's router and use your own. They can run a sneaky update in the night and erase all your settings, mess with them to fit their own schemes, etc. They likely pushed an update that reserved 0-100 in the local Class C network for whatever future use; after all it's their router.

Your router, your total control. Spend some money and get a good 2021 router/mesh that will last 5 years. Linksys or Asus.

Since yesterday my wifi on every phone in my house has been acting up. Browsing is fine but anything media related (youtube, pics, or gifs) has been extremely slow when loading.
Laptop wifi is fine and wired connection is fine.
Saw only a couple of people tweet @digiceltt complaining yesterday.

digismell is on the verge of going bankrupt and pulling out of trinidad and tobago. if everyone come together and not pay an let it automatically disconnect and see how fast they drop the price.
