I have been having slow internet speeds since I began my service in July. I checked to ensure that it was not peek times, where service could be a little slow, and my speed would not surpass 15-16 Mbps. I checked with the speed checker on the Verizon website and with www.Speedcheck.net were neither peeked over 16Mbps. I consulted with the Verizon tech support and he said the modem needed to be replaced as it was outdated. This is an issue I raised when I first signed up for service. When the installer arrived he said that the router did not need to be replaced. The contradiction here is disturbing in that I have been paying for a service that I have not been receiving because of the installers error...not mine. I am having a new modem sent to me and it should be here tomorrow. I would like to have my service credited for the correct speed that I have been using due to Verizon's installer. I was insturcted by billing that this is THE ONLY WAY TO MAKE THIS HAPPEN???????? Why is this the only way. Please help me resolve this issue or I may have to find service elsewhere.
