    Will a faster cable modem make a difference?

    We have a small wired (Ethernet) LAN. It has a two Macs, a AppleTV and a NAS device. There's an unmanaged Netgear switch to connect it all and an ASUS router. The router connects to the Internet via a 1Gb/s Motorola DOCSIS 3.1 cable modem. I pay for 1GB/s and generally when I run Speedtest I get...

    Finally Done with Comcast

    Another year of huge price hikes, "you rolled off your promotion," and trying to charge me more for the same service. I'm definitely ready to cancel, but wanted to get some thoughts from the forum as well. Anyone else ditched Comcast and been glad? Anyone regretted it? I'm thinking of going...

    Why Does Our WiFi Slow or Stop when my iMac Is On?

    We have Comcast, 75 gig service (I think — it’s supposed to be sorta fast). We have had numerous periods where it slows to a crawl, stalls, or just plain stops. We’ve tried to troubleshoot this, even buying our own Netgear dual band cable modem (C3700-100NAS). What tends to correct it is if I...

    Stupid HD TV questions

    And I do mean stupid. You have my permission to call me an idiot when you're done reading! I'm one of the last people on earth to get a flat screen TV. I remember the days where you bought a TV, brought it home and plugged it in. When cable-ready meant you just put the coax into the TV and you...

    Best Modem w/ VOIP

    Any suggestions on the best modem to purchase that also has a VOIP connection? We're having some problems with the modem Comcast provides and want to look into purchasing our own. I have an Arris Surfboard which runs great, but it doesn't have VOIP. Thanks
