Need some advice. While in FL I use CenturyLink DSL, Verizon 4G and 3G are overloaded and close to useless.
My current setup is:
1. An ATT DSL Modem (that's what was available before we moved to Naples from Homestead) modified to work with CenturyLink.
2. A CradlePoint Router capable of accepting a LTE 4G USB Air Card.
3. Two Laptops (we provide Internet Access for our friends from Canada), two wireless printers and DW's IPAD, Kindle Fire and Smart Phone.
Last year we experienced multiple dropouts and periods of slow speeds, the Cradle Point would Auto Recover the dropouts. All in all not very good service. Don't know if the poor service was the DSL provider or my cobbled together Modem and Router.
I am going to buy a Router/Modem Combo to see if it works any better and it will remove one piece of equipment from the Dashboard when we are set up.
I would like a high quality and highly sensitive unit with strong WiFi output. I am confused about DSL vs. ADSL2 as well as 802G vs. 802N.
I will appreciate all your recommendations and will provide any additional info you need.
