      The Ritter tech was in the middle of installing extension lines to our rooms when I noticed he was using Cat5e cable. We need direct hookups because their Wifi isn't strong enough. When I noticed the 5e cable I told him we needed Cat 8 since he's hooking it up to the fiber modem. What good is fiber if you're just hooking it up to old tech cables? I told him ok but if it's not giving the speeds we need then they'll have to replace what he's installing. He then said refused to continue at all, he knows it's not as effective as Cat8 or even Cat 6! I told him I want the fiber speeds were paying for and 5e cable isn't effective, it's old tech! The tech just gathered his stuff walked out. His supervisor and manager called but not helpful. I asked for upper management to contact me. No wonder people complain about their *********** speeds, they're connecting sub-par cables to their high speed fiber! They had a 5e cord connecting our wall fiber connection to the modem, that was slowing down the already slow internet as well. Every professional installer I talked to said they should use Cat 6 at the very minimum with Fiber. RITTER needs to know this because it hurts their reputation when they use old tech cables with their high tech fiber. I'm still waiting for someone with corporate to contact me to resolve this! What good is fiber if you're having old technology Cat5e connecting it? Meanwhile, I have cords all over the floors connecting the modem to our computers because their wifi isn't sufficient for high gaming speeds and the tech didn't install our wall hookups.

      I have been a DLS customer for almost exactly 20 years. Service was originally through Millington ************* and then Ritter bought them out. I was excited when I heard Ritter had bought them. I fully expected they would invest and modernize the infrastructure in my area and offer better/faster services. Unfortunately, that has not been the case. I'm told that Ritter has a monopoly in the Millington and surrounding area, has no plans to improve services for "Remote" residents, and refuses to allow any competition to come in and offer better services. Today I visited Ritter's website and discovered that my neighbor's address across the street from me can order Ritter gigabit service, but when I put in my address in the "availability checker", it says that service is not available for my address. We are talking literally 800 feet between my home and my neighbor's home. I'm beyond frustrated because I know in many areas I could be getting gigabit speeds for a fraction of what I'm paying for service that's barely faster than dial-up. Ritter...you disappoint me and many others in my situation.
