the reason for internet being slower when its rainy is because
more people are at home watching stuff on Netflix, et.al. instead
of going out. Doesn't change the fact that Comcast is not that
reliable, but 🤷♂️.<br>

What town do you live in? There are a number of initiatives to
get Municipal Fiber Optic Internet set up. Some towns already
have been rolling things out (Holyoke, South Hadley, Westfield,
others...) and some are in the process (Easthampton, Northampton,
towns west of the Pioneer Valley). Check out: <a

, that is a group that has regular updates on the latest going on
in the democratization of internet access in the Pioneer Valley.
There are also town specific sites if you live in a town that is
working on getting such a program set up.<br>

<div dir="ltr">Hi All,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Not sure if it is "just me" but seems like comcast cable
internet historically (and currently) really bogs down in
the evening and when it rains/snows. Seems like there might
be a bottleneck in some trunk lines and we work a lot at
night.during tax season and I cant afford to lose
productivity </div>

</div>
<div>I am relying on two hosted (cloud) based software
solutions this year and I am seeking to backup my internet
connection with a mobile hotspot and an antenna booster</div>

<div>Considering this with a Month to Month Data plan of 100GB</div>
