Clearwire does not provide the bandwidth that I pay for.

Clearwire Internet Service complaint by Valant43

Clearwire is an internet provider. I pay $50/mnth for internet service that is stated to be "up to 1.5Mb". Clearwire is a wireless provider (the modem that you pay for receives its signal wirelessly).I have used several bandwidth speed checks, such as cnet bandwidth meter, and have never got throughput above 800kb.Often times the bandwidth is down to 240kbps. Clearwire has no technicians so you must be satisfied with a telephone or online chat double speak. I have never been able to get an answer to the question of whether or not their system is actually capable of higher broadband throughput.

first thing you have to remember with clearwire is a new technology

almost every speed test computer have problems reading clearwire up and down.

it is a wireless technology

i setup cleawire alday long if you were only getting 800 k you would not be able to watch the news on line or cnn or anything alse for that matter.

clearwire is not in compition with wired providers. and should not be we offer a new way to the internet and use it were you want to thats all

a 1,5 account in most of my areas in washington state are getting way over 1.5 meg till there is more accounts on the towers,

speed test and any other testing software has never been correct for clearwire.

give it chance to grow and when wi max gets out there it will blow everything else out there away
