Hello !
I would like to ask if anyone using HT internet in the Waikiki, Kaimuki, or Diamond Head area has any problems with connection or speed. I am currently using Spectrum, but I am wondering if I should switch to Spectrum to save money since it costs $90 for internet alone. However, I know that the price of HT is going up every year. Please let me know if you are using it ^_^.

Honey bee, I think it would be a good idea to describe your internet usage.
The speed you need will depend on how many people are using it, whether you do streaming, etc.

By the way, I am in an old apartment in the McCully area, so I don't have access to HT's blazing fast connection, 50 Mbps (about 20 Mbps actual), but it is fast enough for watching YouTube by myself.
The price would be $ 70 or so for the regular service, but when I told them that Spectrum's service with the same speed was $ 25, they discounted it to $ 30.

We switched to T-mobile internet this year. We used to use Spectrum or Hawaiian Telcom internet, but both of these companies become expensive after the 2 year promotion period, but T-mobile has $ 40 ~ $ 50 with no extra fee. It seems like this price is still the same after all these years. We consistently get 200Mbps speeds at home. Other than that, the best thing about T-mobile is that I can set it up myself without having to call a technician to set it up. I can take it home and set it up and try it out for 15 days to test speeds, etc.

I have been using HT for almost 20 years. Formerly in Makiki and now in Ala Moana.HT has a lot of problems to say the least. When my neighbors get up in the morning or come home from work and everyone else is using the internet, it cuts out quite frequently (, stays offline for 30 minutes at worst, or mumbles finely about 30 times an hour ), and the speed becomes extremely slow and unusable. So last year, I asked them to increase my Mbps, but the person in charge did not show up at the appointed time, so I made a new appointment, but that day also ended up with no show. During that time, I had no internet for about two weeks, which was really inconvenient for me because it interfered with my work. I couldn't help but laugh when I heard that an acquaintance's father had worked for HT for a long time, but switched to Spectrum right after he retired because he still had many problems with the internet. However, the good thing about HT is that the price is negotiable, so you can get a much lower price ?. 566>" and they will give you a surprisingly low price. If you still feel that the price is too high, they have a loyalty ・ discount, which allows you to get a further discount under the authority of the person answering the phone, so if you push again, they will give you an even lower price.
