Really solid, their office is next door to my office Paul S. Henderson, REALTOR®, CRS . HOWEVER if it would go down I have a different provider at home so I'd head to that desk.

Pretty solid but if disaster strikes either at office or home I tether from my phone using EasyTetherPro. Using this app I do not use my hotspot which has a limit.

I have Suddenlink 150 Mbps and it is awesome... Of course, that is at home. It is really reliable. I have not had any issues.  I had the tech come out for the TV box and asked about my internet connection.  He said I had the wrong router at only 100Mbps.  He went to his truck and replaced it with a 400Mbps router and have not had any issues since. 

Work can be spotty but I will tether to my phone if necessary.

Like glitches of all kinds, stuff happens.  There seems to be workarounds of all sorts in most cases/situations.  Not always "perfect" but what method is truly fool-proof.  At least that's the story this fool has to offer.

Just this week I have had problems with my home net as it comes and goes and is very slow to download.  I did call the company for them to tell me it was only working at a third of it's capacity as they were making repairs and upgrading.  Not happy but use hotspot when necessary.

My office is equipped with very good service so far.  It is fast. No problems so far there.

Funny, it went down for most of the day a couple days ago.  No backups, short of going into a coffee shop of parking on the wifi network for the hospital I used to work at.  Fine if I don't need my dual 27inch monitors, not so good when you are re-writing a 600 word blog into a 1500 word one...

Pretty solid. If there's a storm and the network goes down then everyone is down & I will be down too. At the moment I am using a mobile hotspot while on vacation. I would say it is rare I can't access the internet.
