So far, I'm trying hard to find anything I can like about Sonic FTTN. But it's hard:
As it stands, the only thing I'm actually liking with Sonic is the phone number I was assigned (and I can't even use it since I don't have a POTS phone and I'm not going to buy one until I know Sonic internet service can work for me).
- I apparently can't bridge my modem, which upsets my dual-WAN router (it expects to have a public IP on each WAN port, unsurprisingly) and effectively makes me have to have two different LAN segments (Sonic and the other ISP).
- My speed tests are all over the map (all the way down to about 5 megabits sometimes!), which would make the dual-WAN part of my router that much more useful.
- The hold times for calling in are generally atrocious.
- Calling into support seems to have a common answer of "post to the forum", which defeats the purpose of calling in for support.
- Also, I can't use my own SIP equipment (phone/ATA) with the Voice service.
