The the original installer apparently didn't complete the job and neglected a step. On March 30, 2026, I started receiving the same error message "no internet". This went on for 2 or 3 hours before internet service resumed without constant interruptions of no internet service. Yesterday April 8, 2026, at approximately 2:48pm I started receiving the same message "no internet". I rebooted, shut everything down and restarted. It worked for about 5 min before saying the same thing. So I called Astound and was told that I was going to need someone to come out because something was wrong AGAIN! I've only had Astound for 2 months and a technician has been required twice within that time frame. So everything I've heard about Astound appears to be true! Very Dissappointed!

I had Spectrum for a year on their introductory price, and everything went smoothly. But as soon as…read morethe 13th month came around, they raised my bill by $15. I called customer service to see if they could offer a better rate, but the representative told me I was already getting a great deal for what I had. That same night, I called T-Mobile and switched to their 5G wireless home internet plan for $30 a month, plus a free month and a $100 gift card. When I called Spectrum today to cancel, the representative suddenly offered to lower my bill to $20 a month, down from $55. They were practically begging me to stay. At that point, it was more about principle. If they could offer that kind of deal now, why didn't the representative the night before transfer me to someone who could negotiate the price? Instead, he acted like he didn't care, and now I feel the same way about their company. So I went ahead and canceled and moved on. When you take peoples business for granted, you lose them.

I own and operate a successful coffee shop in Austin. We have as many as 80 wifi users at one time…read moreon a regular basis. I spent almost two years banging my head against the wall trying to manage it myself. You name it, we tried it. We paid for multiple lines, we bought the best routers we could find, changed service providers, threw money at anyone we thought could help us, and consulted with everyone we thought might be able to help us. Nothing we tried was able to fix the problem. We'd pay someone to come out to find that our router had been hacked and the settings reset. They would fix it only for it to get hacked again in a few days. We'd get letters from our different providers that people were abusing the wifi and using our line to download things illegally. We saw Yelp review after Yelp review complaining of our poor wifi. What could we do? We were doing EVERYTHING we knew of. It seemed people thought that we just didn't care but that was not the case. We just didn't know how to fix the problem and it seemed neither did anyone else. That is until Murray from DeepCoolClear came along! I wish I could speak about all the things he has done for us, but half of them are above my head! I know this: now we get Yelp reviews talking about how much our internet has improved! No matter what problem we have that is internet related, Murray has the answer and he has it right when you need it. Our new wifi managed by DeepCoolClear is able to easily handle our 80 plus users simultaneously. Murray also has a plan in place for us if our needs increase. If people are abusing our wi-fi by using bit torrent, etc.. the new system identifies their computer and automatically kicks them off after a certain period of time freeing up the bandwidth for everyone else. When needed, he works with our POS creator to work out kinks there. Even when we are just doing things wrong, when it is totally operator error, he helps us out without a second thought. I'm trying to remember all of the wonderful things DeepCoolClear is doing for us, but there are just so many! I believe our POS has priority when it comes to the internet so our credit card transactions are no longer affected (slowed down) by a high volume of customers. We haven't received any complaints from our service provider about illegal downloads since DeepCoolClear began managing our wifi. They can produce reports and graphs for us to show us just exactly what's going on all the time when we have questions and they are available 24/7 to answer those questions. I have yet to call Murray and get a voicemail at the end of the line. I guess my only complaint is that I didn't find these guys 2 years ago! Seriously, I cannot say enough good things about them. Do yourself and your business a favor and use DeepCoolClear to manage your public wifi!

What an absolutely infuriating experience I've had with Reallinx. After spending a year with Time…read moreWarner Cable Business class I was sold to Reallinx by a sales rep that quit about a week after I signed a contract with them. For a minimal savings per month, I was sold on 'local friendly service' that was more personalized than dealing directing with Time Warner Cable. Not even close. From the get-go we started noticing hiccups in the service. Slow internet speeds (slower than advertised), increased downtime and spotty customer service. After having to move offices and maintain our internet service (we're an internet-based company), we were made to sign another 1 year contract with them. Within a month of signing the new contract, we had enough. For 3 months, they had charged us $1400 over our invoice. We had increased downtime, enough to where some days we needed to send employees home so we could get our work done. What was Reallinx response? "it's not our fault, it's time warner's fault'. Every. single. time. We would call Reallinx, be put on hold, and wait while they called TWC to figure out what was wrong. Why can't I jut called TWC directly and deal with the problem faster? What's the point of Reallinx? TWICE, we had a Time Warner Cable tech come to our office telling us that Reallinx support had no idea what they were doing. The customer service has been terrible. So I'm an unhappy customer, I would like to terminate my contract. However, while Time Warner Cable (the REAL provider of our internet) has a flat termination fee of $175, Reallinx has a termination fee of the 'remainder of the contract', meaning...just about the full year that we have to pay. Ridiculous. Even though we've given them a 30 day notice to not renew our contract (standard among most industries), we've just been informed the fine print reads that they require a 60 day notice. We're now locked back into yet another year with a service we absolutely do not want and do not recommend. We either pay them for a full year of service, or stay with them again. Ultimately it's our fault for not looking at the fine print, but seriously. They don't care about their customers, they have no interest in whether we're happy or not, and hold us to an unfair contract. Not local business friendly at all. I do not recommend them at all, and will continously tell all my central Texas customers and colleagues to stay far away from them. Worst integrity I've seen in a company in Austin in years.

I didn't think it was possible to have poorer internet and customer service than Time Warner Cable…read moreor Comcast. But then, we got Reallinx and it is by far the bottom of the barrel scraps. Here are the main reasons: 1) Shotty internet. We never had a reliable stream of internet at our office since we got them. Although Reallinx resells through Time Warner Cable, we rarely had trouble with TWC directly as far as internet connection goes. 2) "They don't know WTF they are doing". There were 2 times when the Time Warner representative came out to our office to pick up the old equipment since we moved offices. Unfortunately, there was a mixup in communication between Reallinx and Time Warner, so they ended up taking the working modem, which took our internet down for a day and a half. 3) Billing incompetence. For 3 months from Nov '14 - Jan '15, they overcharged and billed our account an additional $1,400. Reallinx had no idea what happened and they did eventually reverse it after those 3 months. It was pretty damn annoying having to deal with it in the first place. 4) Ridiculous termination agreement. This is the most absurd termination fee that I have ever seen, and it's my fault for not catching it and signing up for Reallinx in the first place. Most places like TWC have a flat termination fee of $175 if you cancel, and you have to give them 30 days. Not with Reallinx! I gave Reallinx more than 30 days notice, and they replied with needing 60 days notice, or else they will charge us the remainder of the contract (which is pretty much the rest of the year). Stay away from this company fellow Yelpers, this company is garbage.

Has anyone had difficulty with Google fiber installation?…read more They came last week to do the connection from the box to the house which was flawless. Today we got to meet two installers that did not look very professional or sound informed. They went up into the attic three maybe four times and then finally told us we would need a contractor to run the internal wire because they couldn't guarantee when they started drilling holes in the ceiling where it would come out. Our house is one story and it should be a straight shot to the area where the other stuff has been located. Needless to say we stopped them at that point. The installation should be simple as we have had Spectrum ,AT&T, and ADT all do installs in the same area without issues. I looked up online and saw that the subcontracting used for Google installation had issues. They mentioned my concern specifically as well as others. We have a call in to speak with a supervisor or team lead and open for any suggestions at this point.
