I currently have a Motorola modem, which is unreliable so I want to upgrade. What's the difference between modems and routers an what should I get? I don't need any ultra high-end thing just a reliable modem/router for surfing the Internet and some light gaming (mainly COD4).
I see 350 and 450 Mbps speeds Router but I think that that only refers to wireless. Are there differences in the speed of a wired connection for all these new routers or are they all the same?
I am planning to build a site to site vpn tunnel, connecting 2-3 satellite office to the main office.After searching the product, I really don't understand the difference between models like the ASA5505 and RV042.Can I need to use ASA5505 in the main office while RV042 in the stallite offices? Or can I use RV042 (or upper) in all the office and it is enough for vpn tunnel?If it is the case, what is the benefit of ASA series over the RV series?
Swapping cable modem SB5101 that has been working for years for newer one SB6121. F5D8235-4 v2000 router has been working with SB5101 for years. When I connect using same cable/etc. Router cannot get DNS/IP from ISP (Comcast). Cable modem works directly connected to my laptop. Switched back to SB5101 and works again flawlessly. FW on router is 2.01.07. Had comcast tech support as well as comcast tech onsite- no resolution. I did activate new modem thru ISP (even with them here doing it).
What the differences are between bandwidth management on WAN ports and protocol bindings?
If you can specify in each section which protocol should go where why having two places to configure this?Or are there some things to remind when using one of them?
I have RV042 V01 and V03 and RV082 V03.I'm wondering if there's a difference between the default actions taken by the "Logs" interfaces?
In the case of the V01 systems, it appears that I get a Security Notification every hour.In the case of the V03 system, it appears that I rarely get a Security Notification.
I have two modem USB (two ISP) and successfully created two Internet connections. However, it's useless since Windows will only use one of those connections as its default gateway. The other is essentially ignored,I have software Multi-WAN for split IP, first modem connection can't use but it ok for last modem connection to internet.
I recently moved into a new place and suscribed to and ISP which they gave me a modem. I have been planning on buying a a cable spliter and router but in the meantime, I have been switching the cable from the cable box to the modem when I need internet. Well, a friend moved in and he brought HIS modem from same ISP and a wireless router and set it up upstairs. Now there is a modem upstairs and a modem downstairs and a wireless router upstairs. My kids are complaining that they cant connect wirelessly when the internet is being used upstairs. My goal is to be able to have two xbox 360's online- one upstairs and one downstairs, one netbook and two Jurrasic PC's which probalby are not wireless, My roomate prefers to hardwire his xbox to a router as he says its faster that way. Is the problem my kids are having downstairs just that the wireless router is too weak? Is it ok to have to modems connected (the one upstairs to the xbox? and the one downstairs?)
omputer A connects to modum A thru phone line that needs to stay active for a system to operate. Computer B connects to modem B always using the same phone line a few times a month, what device will alow each computer to know and go to its modem, dialing in on one phone line for two modems, and resting in primary state for system A to operate as a Dialer.
i need to use two modems connected to different virtual networks at the same time on one pc.the pc is having two lan cards. i tried using different ip address for both the modems.they are pinging but web pages are not opening.i tried using different browsers for opening web pages of the virtual networks but they are not opening.
In a house that is too large for a small wireless modem to send a signal far enough, is it possible to use a second modem in the same phone line (not at the same time). Filters are used in the spare phone jacks.My main question is: when modem A is being used and modem B is switched off, is it necessary for the splitter for modem B to be removed and the filter put in its place? Or is the fact that modem B is switched off sufficient? I suspect that it's necessary and that's why my friend gets very slow download speeds even when the other modem is off.She insists that it used to work but I think she was just lucky if it used to work.
I have two usb modem A and modem B. modem A could download at max of 300kbps while B could download at max of 700kbps. Since I am a frequent internet user, Im planning to use this two modem simultaneously so that I could have a max speed of 500+300=800+kbps. But I dont know if this would work. The problem with usb modem is that, when you connect the modem A in the internet while modem B is currently running, Modem B is being disregarded right? I was thinking of, say while im browsing and downloading, modem A would be use for browsing and modem B is for downloading. Or them may either share each connection for better performance.
At home we have a BT broadband connection. My girl friends work pays for it as she needs to get on to the office servers, this is secure thought a modem box and also a firewall box. This is restricted our personal internet access to only certain sites on her work laptop. I myself work for myself and need to access the internet via my laptop (mac), I'm a web designer so rely on the internet.If I was to buy an addition wireless modem could I unplug the work configured set-up at the wall, plug in the new one and set it up? I don't need to run the two modems at the same time, so could just swap the plugs as and when required.
I Just switched from DSL to Charter Communications Cable internet. For some reason my computer wont see the internet. I plug the same cord into my brothers computer and the internet works just fine. I plug the same cord back into the DSL and i have internet. I have done troubleshooting and it finds this problem (Your computer appears to be correctly configured, but the device or resource (DNS server) is not responding. I switched to a different cable modem same exact situation. Works on my brothers but not mine. My computer is a much newer and more capable computer then his. When we activated the internet we did it on his computer, but before we switched to charter i plugged the modem in without internet and it seemed to have the same problem. I just got more results on his as it immediately directed my to the charter page at that time. On mine i got nothing. ( Also i believe my brother said that it did work on my computer for a few minutes at first but i'm not 100% on that.)
I have a problem with a new Actiontec modem from Verizon FIOS The past few years I've had two cable modems working fine for verizon fios. Both were the NIM-100 from Motorola.The second "slave" cable modem is connected via coax cable.I recently replaced the primary NIM-100 and the associated wireless router with the new Actiontec modem MI424-WR IN viewing the network connection via the Actiontect control panel, it shows the other slave modem connected via coax but claims that the status is "Cable Disconected"
I have Comcast broadband with one modem connected to my PC. I just bought a Denon AVR-991 Receiver that has internet capability. I I plan to use it for internet radio, etc.The problem is that each piece of equipment is in different areas of the house. I could connect the cable modem to the receiver and connect the PC to the internet via a wireless router, but I don't want to lose the speed of a direct connection on the PC.. can I have two different modems connected to the same incoming cable line? FYI, the existing modem is a Linksys BEFCMU10, and the second modem is one Comcast is in the process of sending to me as I just added Voip phone service to my account.

Region : Australia Model : TL-MR3420 Hardware Version : V2 ISP : Optus, Telstra
Whilst the MR3420 V2 is sold as a 4G usb router, it appears that it does not support many usb 4G devices.In Australia we currently have the Seirra 320u, ZTE MF821 (100Mbps Cat 3) and Huawei E3276 (150Mbps Cat 4)whilst the V2 supports the first two (not the E3276), it has one major failure!It does not work at full 4G speeds.
The V2 does not appear to allow download speeds in excess of 25Mbps or uploads much greater than 2Mbps. This occurs on fast 3G and 4G networks.The throttled speed is apparently due to slow modem protocols deployed in the router. High protocol overheads mean it cannot 'shuffle data' very fast.We have developed working solutions using the Openwork platform that overcome these issues and provides speeds in excess of 70mbps.
