ASeriesOfPoorChoices@lemmy.world 4 months agoI think you need to find out what kind of connection you actually have. I mean, it’s unlikely you’ve got a dedicated ethernet cable to the ISP.
Where does that ethernet line actually go?
Have you run some basic traceroutes, at least?

Smartaira fiber. Best I can gather they’re using a a big switch and segmenting each port. Probably per floor. They socialize in large scale wifi deployment and that’s what they’re doing. It’s a genius way to provide basic web access with a minimal hardware footprint for the provider and no hardware but a POE AP for the users. It just sucks for those of us who know better.
