All isp plans are contracts, it doesn’t matter if they are 2,3,5 year contracts, they are contracts with expiration dates.
I was paying $80 a month for xfinity for 1G and I knew they were going to raise it by $50 after my contract expired so I went with spectrum. Plus, xfinity charges for their modem/router $25 a month which is on top of the monthly charge, not sure if they do this with the slower speed contracts. Spectrum doesn’t charge for their modem and I use my own routers.
WiFi thru the air is hit and miss but mostly miss because of the weak signal into the house. You have to place the wifi router in a certain spot to get a decent signal and then if you only use 1 router in your house, all the other rooms will get terrible wifi because the signal has to go thru walls. If you have an Ethernet port next to where you place the wifi router, then you can setup a wired bridged or mesh network with other routers in the other rooms in your house.
No isp will setup your private wifi network correctly. NOBODY! You will always have to change the wifi ssid’s on all your phones/tablets/computers/ecobee’s/garage door openers/etc.. instead of just using the last ssid you used with the other provider.
