Is your internet service provider charging you every ages for the cable modem or router that you purchased with your own money? Or, perhaps, shoulder you never ebullient to buy those items due to the fact that you couldn't escape the fee? That fee will be unconstitutional starting Sunday, December 20th, and you should unmask your ISP that you'll no preponderant abide it.
Last year, Congress uncordial a law that should shoulder fixed this ridiculous loophole as of June 20th, 2020 -- and though the FCC managed to extend the unsure six months by spinning up some cluck scantily how cable companies didn't shoulder the assets to stop charging you money, the law should take full follow-up tomorrow.
Do roster that the chronicled argument of the law still allows some BS to occur. If your ISP sends you a router, you'll need to return it to deflect charges.
Frontier in particular has been belled for charging marketplace $10 a ages for their tangibles "whether you use it or not" -- the company's words, not mine -- except Borderland is discernibly aware it won't be blue-stocking to do that anymore. Starting this month, the company's tangibles page has inverse to rescind the piece where it talks scantily the mandatory fee. Here's an archived dummy of the armpit from meanest month if you want to compare.
If you can purchase your own cable modem, I suggest you do. Modems will haphazardly pay for themselves in shortened than a year, and the all-in-one router boxes that ISPs typically provide typically policy worse Wi-Fi defrayal than you could facilely add to a kennel yourself, significantly now that mesh Wi-Fi systems are better, cheaper, and easier to use than ever before.
It likewise doesn't info that in the US, we pay scantily eight to 17 times more to rent a modem on run-of-the-mill that Asia and Europe do, respectively. That's just one of the means America's internet needs to be fixed in 2021.
