So I live in a condo and we get comcast infinity cable.
We've gone through half a dozen routers in the last few years.
They just keep dying.
Get this problem where the internet signal becomes intermittent.
Sometimes the router will work sometimes it wont.
This current router lasted only half a day!!!
The cable guy said one clue. He said we have "too much power" going through out cable cord.
so he set it up with a splitter, and going into the splitter there is some weird cylinder looking thingie (no idea what it is, a resistor maybe??).
then the splitter splits to the normal cable, and the other opening is just empty.
Also years ago we did have a power surge in the area of the router, but we replaced all the electronics there already.
