May 01, 2026 Our internet runs very smoothly unless there is obvious bad weather outside. My husband and I both play online video games with our PC's, as well as another member of the household using the internet to watch television. I can count on one hand how many times the internet has slowed down my ability to play online games and do tasks on the internet on my computer. Optimum also has great customer service as well as the ability to test the internet speed on your cellphone to make sure where the problem lies, if it is a computer issue or an internet issue.
