15 Metronet fades in the last day.
I made a service call Wednesday morning. It went much differently than the one back in the winter.
Metronet now has an automated link tester. It immediately confirmed the poor QOS. No run-around from an arrogant customer agent.
And the service automation immediately located the fault, created the necessary work orders, and the issue was corrected within 15 minutes (it was in the CO).

Self hosting is great until your internet goes down. Finally back online after a garbage truck took out the fiber line that runs across the street. Again. They say they ran it higher this time. What a great idea! Nice going, #Metronet.
Overall, the Metronet fiber pricing feels dishonest to me. I wonder how many people sign up for this without reading the fine print. Below is the pricing for my location, which includes 3 scheduled price increases over the next 3 years.
Monthly Price
$39.95
This Monthly Price is an introductory rate
The rate will go to 49.95 on month 13, to 59.95 on month 25, and to 69.95 on month 37.
On this day in 2017, I visited Whiteman Park in Perth.
Whiteman Park is home to the Bennett Brook Railway and Perth Electric Tramway Society, as well as two transport museums.
Ironically, for such a transport themed park, the only way to visit is by car. This is set to change with the park's tram line being extended to the new Whiteman Park railway station on the Ellenbrook suburban railway line (currently under construction). Both the tram extension and the Ellenbrook line are expected to open in December 2024.
Oh neat #MetroNet has already rolled out the broadband nutrition label thing.
Cyclepath closed for Metronet means you have to use the footpath outside a school, which is partially blocked by roadworks sign. Traffic island a metre away would've been better spot for sign. TIL the council cant do anything legal about this, ranger contacted to say they are exempt, similar to speed cameras. #cycling #biketooter #Perth #metronet
I now have both Metronet and AT&T Fiber at home. Some details for thinking of switching.
* Both installs went very smooth.
* Both are reaching gigabit speeds(900-920mbps actual)
* Metronet uses CGNAT which limits portforwarding and can be a problem for some video games. (workarounds possible)
* ATT gives a real public IP address and Support IPv6.
Both services cost the same. bundling can save some.
I use both with my own gear
Happy to share any more details.

#MetroNet sucks ass. Gas lighting tech support. No resolution. You will never be satisfied
Stabil auf produkte.metro.de nicht zu finden… IT und Metro. Und die waren mal Internetprovider #RIP #Metronet https://www.computerwoche.de/a/konkurrenz-fuer-provider,1108329
FIBER!!!!
I would say the improvement is noticeable #Kalamazoo #MetroNet #Portage #Fiber
Going back to my post a couple of days ago wondering if fiber was coming to my neighborhood, it looks like that is, in fact, true. I got their card in the mail yesterday.
I'd never heard of #metronet before. Anyone here use them? What has your experience been like?
Their pricing seemed good at first glance. $60 for 1Gb and opposed to the $60 I'm paying now for 100Mb. But looking closer it's that price for only the first 12 months, then goes up to $85 for months 13-24, then goes up again to $95 for months 25+. That kind of put a damper on my excitement.
Looks like my #metronet internet is down again in Batavia for the second time in 36 hours! They had a really good track record up until then.
Having issues with our #Metronet modem and the tech can’t come out until *Thursday*. 
#Metronet recently installed #fiber in my neighborhood. I didn't sign up because I already have pretty fast #DSL for $30/month, but they still installed a box in my back yard for when they service my neighbors.
They've had technicians ringing my doorbell every day for the past week, asking for access to the back yard, and just now, at 7:55 AM on a Saturday morning, they did it again. 
At what point can I start invoicing them for wasting my time?
New fiber is installed and the symmetry is gonna be glorious. #byecomcast #metronet
