I noticed that Beam is very good in some area's and a bit patchy in others........ BTW I also used to get some downtime every week earlier about an hour or so every week, but a couple of months ago Beam installed a direct fiber and after that there is no down time but I guess if the fiber gets cut I will get a major downtime to fix the fiber, a beam tech said it take 4-5 hrs to fix a fiber cut.But believe me I have heard too many downtime stories in this forum and thus I have a backup connection ready just in case!
