2 Gig Fios Setup Question

I don’t currently have FIOS but there is a possibility I would move apartment and the new one does have FIOS available up to 2 Gig.

I wanted to ask what would be the best setup to pair FIOS with when it comes to reach the highest speed and lowest latency during data transmission. IE: Fios connected with a specific router.

Thank you!

Lease Takeover Question

Hello everyone,

I finally got an answer from my landlord about lease takeover.

Long story-short:

I live on a rent-stabilized building and pay 2500. However, I’m strongly considering moving out into a townhouse/brownstone 1st/2nd/3rd floor due to having a baby and current apartment is a 5th walk-up.

My landlord say’s someone can take over my lease but they must be approved by them first, understandable.

My question is: if someone takes over my lease, would the lease still be with the same conditions/price of my current lease or they will make a new one? Would a broker be a good resource to find someone to serve as middle-men?

I honestly want this as hassle free as possible and I already had a viewing on an apartment that I’m very interested in but pretty sure will miss it due to being out of sync with timeframes.

Any guidance or recommendations on this?

Thanks!

I been looking at the improvements on speeds/latency Starlink has been making and also monitoring this sub and I would like to give it a go with the MAX plan.

I would only use it for gaming and I already know the dilema between fiber, coax, wireless etc, however, I would like to know how Starlink ranks when it comes to jitter and latency on my area specifically. I live on a top floor with a balcony so the service would literally be aiming at the sky directly 24/7.

I currently have Optimum 1 gig down/36 up coax but the jitter increases drastically on congestion, making unable to play FPS. My debate here is if Starlink can bring lower latencies and lower jitter compared to my current coax based on the issues I been facing and more importantly: stability. I don’t really care about the download but the upload/latency/jitter for me is going to be the most important aspect. I tried TMHI and I ended up returning it months ago.

Any advice?
