Fidium Attune WiFi 4+

FIDIUM uses fiber optics which means you have a dedicated line to your house. Super fast connectivity and reliable signal versus cable. Night and day change!!

Spectrum cable uses coaxial cables which means you share with all your neighbors and likewise get throttled back if it’s a busy time. Do you ever see a spinning circle? Pixelated screens? Won’t connect? No internet found? I had all of that. Thought it was my router. Nope. Thought my phone was to blame. Not true. It was the service!

Spectrum cable uses outdated technology which results in subpar connectivity and speed. It’s super expensive and unreliable. Some apps will require you to “connect to a service provider” so you shouldn’t ditch it all together. However, Fidium is far and away superior. Highly recommend 👏😎

I moved to owls head Maine a year and a half ago and struggled making phone calls and using the Internet during this time. I was constantly having to move my computer and phones around to try to get reception. The Fidium high speed Internet is not only fast but faster than the Internet in my office in South Louisiana. Extremely happy with the new service.

Despite high hopes when installed, Fidium has been a disaster. Frequent drops, intermittent slow speeds, but the worst has been the website user interface. I’ve tried for months to pay my bill online, but every time I click on the link the site circles back to the page that I’m on, never completing the link, never allowing me to pay online. I downloaded the app, but I’m stuck on a page which states, “Searching for pods…” and nothing more happens.

Customer service has been worthless. Aside from an overly long wait on hold, once connected the customer is bounced from agent to agent, each agent asking in turn for the customer’s lengthy ID number, despite the fact that they can easily look up one’s account by name, or phone number.

Not a single suggestion offered has worked, agents are condescending, I’ve been treated as an old guy who’s simply not internet savvy, with no suggestions for resolution of the problem. When I asked, repeatedly, for a physical mailing address to which I could send a check, it was only on the third request to a supervisor that I received the info, with the admonition that if payment was late I could lose service.

Had I any other option at all where I live I wouldn’t use Fidium, and certainly wouldn’t recommend the company.
