Anybody have starlink? I've got Xfinity and recently got a new Modem and my service has gotten worse somehow.

I dont have Starlink, but I do have ATT wireless internet. so far so good. can stream all my TV's computers etc. They five you a little box that is the modem and the router, follow the instructions and you are good to go!! I think I pay around 60 per month. will probably go with Youtube TV for the tv part, right now I just use rabbit ears for my locals, and apps for the rest.
3rd party modem or Xfinity gateway? Either way you may be able to exchange it. I did that with mine. I may have just had a lemon.
Xfinity supposedly gave me a free equipment upgrade years ago that made internet in my house suck really bad and as a result I demanded to go back to my old equipment they provided and all has been well. Faster speeds than expected. They keep telling me I can upgrade my equipment but I never reply. Also, with the Xfinity equipment they broadcast a separate access point that anyone with an Xfinity account can log on to which I turn off because that is just stupid to let others log onto your equipment. Chances are you can find Xfinity hot sports in any neighborhood town that you can log into with your Xfinity credentials.
Exactly my issue, service has been ******er since I upgraded to the free equipment. Getting ready to try Frontiers new fiber.
For some reason Xfinity pushes the Arris modem/router combos. Those things are absolute turds.
If you want the M/R combo get your own Netgear combo. Lightyears better and WAY more reliable than the Arris or Xfinity's Arris knockoffs.
