Modem

I've been considering building my own router for a while now and am looking for the right SBC, or maybe even super small motherboard. I considered using one of my old PC's but I want something more compact. I'm trying to find something as expandable and modular as I can and nothing I've looked...

My internet signal is disconnecting every 15 minutes and I have found that when it disconnects the modem light that signals its online turns off. I checked the modem admin page for errors in the log and found "Lost MDD Timeout" and "TLV-11 - Illegal Set operation failed" happen whenever my...

So today my router decided to act up really oddly. My internet died, so I restarted my modem and router (Asus GT-AX11000), nothing. Ran Windows troubleshooter, it was complaining about not being able to detect proxy settings. Connected directly to the router, it was showing that its status was...

Hello, around January 1st, I have noticed during online gaming sessions that I would occasionally, and sometimes frequently, get ping spikes for a few seconds when before going back to normal. For example, in League of Legends, I would get around 17ms-18ms at all times, while now it fluctuates...

I have two factor authentication on for Instagram, Twitter and Facebook and when I go into the login activity of my accounts it says I logged in from CT last month even though I wasn't there at all then. My instagram data I downloaded shows a new IP Address which is also in CT as I managed to...

I recently got a pair of the Actiontec Moca 2.0 adapters and when I went to go set it up, the coax light wouldn’t come on, so no internet from them. The internet from the router still works though. I was wondering if there’s something wrong with my setup. View...

Hello, Since a year or 2 i've been getting unstable ping in games, to the point that it became unplayable. My connection is wired and have enough download speed to have stable connection. So at this point i've tried countless software related things to solve the problem. I even changed my...

Parents have a strange all in one Portuguese TV-wifi combo and it's refusing to connect to the internet. Logging into the router offers no real clues and I am at a loss what to do. Interestingly, there is a emulated router login website which looks exactly the same as mine...

Hello! I'm trying to use my computer to host a centralized version control server for a team coding project, and so far everything is seemingly set up correctly in terms of the server, and the client sides -- except that the TCP connection fails due to an issue with my port 1666, which the...

We currently have a modem/router that is on the lower level of our house. We have 2 offices on the second story, and I'm trying to figure out the easiest way to get direct connection up there. Currently my plan is to run ethernet cables from the modem up to the office and have it connected to a...

As the subject above says, I am paying AT&T for 45Mbps a month internet service. My wifi connection is disturbingly slow. Speed tests from multiple sources show anywhere between 4Mbps and 10Mbps (wifi) and 35 to 45Mbps (connected via ethernet). I am aware there can be discrepancies between what...

For about 6 months now my modem has been experiencing T3 timeouts. They last anywhere from 30 min to 2 hours and almost always happen between the hours of 10-12 am in the morning, the connection will stay relatively stable throughout the afternoon (I sometimes get T3 timeouts during this period...

Okay so I have a 300 mbps internet plan. Two questions. I'm using a powerline adapter, for one computer upstairs, and one in the basement, while the modem is in the middle floor, but it only gets to around 30 to 40 mbps. Do I need a new powerline adapter? My dad's phone, the Samsung S9 can get...

Hello, first of all my english sucks when it comes to tech stuff so I may end up using wrong terms. And secondly, im just an amateur when it comes to this stuff. To the subject: I want to see wireless users that are connected to the router. But I can't seem to be able to, I'm using the app...

Been scratching my head over this one for a few days, and the results are inconsistent and frustrating. The ISP visited on Monday and fixed some bad cable splitters, but it did not seem to resolve the issue. I also replaced the modem as a last resort, but this did not seem to help. Every 20-40...

Hi I am hoping someone can help me. I have recently started a new gigafast contract with vodaphone in the UK. This provides me with fibre to the house. The Fibre converter is a Gigapoint 801GV2 (https://images.app.goo.gl/qyBYCwcig6TdRSRe7 image of the ports) this has an ethernet port (RJ45). I...

Hi there. I recently received a new router, Comtrend VR-3071. Unfortunately, it seems the password had been changed by the ISP, and they had saved the wrong password. I did a factory reset, and seemingly was able to connect with the password, but when I connected, a message would read, "No...

Hello, basically I have switched from att to Xfinity and noticed I could not get an internet signal from my modem. I checked the Xfinity box outside and noticed that a cable is cut.

Looking to save $10/m by purchasing a Modem and Router however finding anything decent is proving really difficult. Google and Amazon are extremely helpful though recommending only Routers to me.

For some reason, the ethernet cable that I use for my wifi router is not consistent at all. The cable itself is fine but will randomly cut out and stop letting wifi come through my router. This issue has affected multiple routers that I've used over the last few years, and there's no real rhyme...

I am driving myself nuts here trying to solve this. A few days ago we had network problems and a tech came out and gave us a new modem while splitting our tv and internet lines. So now we have two modems. One serves the internet and the other is for phone and TV. I run a Minecraft server from a...

Hello, I am receiving the "local area connection doesn't have a valid ip configuration" when I directly connect my PC to my modem via Ethernet cord. But if I connect the modem to my router then then connect that to my PC, I have a connection. I have two PC's connected to my router and when I...

Hey all, Just looking for some suggestions for a cable modem to go with my service provider, Spectrum.

I'm struggling a little bit to find a highly recommended ADSL modem (that works in the UK with BT) to go with the new expensive router I'm buying, so I was wondering whether the BT HomeHub 5 can serve as a good modem? I've read that a lot of people just switch off the WiFi on the HomeHub and use...

Hi, i have been with a Coaxial Cable provider giving me insane speeds for a while now, but for the past 10~ weeks the old modem decided to die, and i don't another one of those garbage ones my ISP sends me for some silly price. I have done extensive searches on Coaxial Cable Modem/Router combos...

I think I've set up a bit of a pseudo Double-NAT scenario and I'm really wonder whether my set up is even feasible. First the rationale: My modem is a dual modem/router ISP-provided box. It's placed alone on the farthest corner of my home, offering poor connection if it were to run as the...

I currently use a BT HomeHub and it's horrible, loaded latency is insane compared to unloaded (did a quick speed test on Fast.com and unloaded came in as 7ms, loaded came in as 1.4 seconds) and there's just such a huge dropout in download speed when every additional device is connected so I felt...

Okay. Here’s my silly question for the day. I’ve been reading about routers vs modems, how modems provide the internet while routers emit the wifi signal. I have been confused about our situation regarding a modem for years. Now I finally decided to try to figure it out. Do we even have a modem...
