We are renting a modem from comcast anyways... so no loose. You should see how locked down this modem/router is. It has a usb port for external hdds and such and its disabled. In fact you cant disable the router. Its always on no matter what.

Its a modem/router combo from comcast... It actually worked rather well for a while Many times. I was without internet for a while until I left it unplugged for 5 minutes. I haven't tried a factory restore but tonight I think its finally failing. I guess I should probably get it replaced friday since its a comcast box and maybe just buy my own router.

Recently I have been having some major problems with my router... I think. I like to play CSGO and basically every few minutes my ping spikes to 500 and even 1000ms when normally its 50~ms. I tried logging into my router today and literally the connection is timing out. Interference might be part of the issue but I think there is more of a problem than that. Earlier I couldn't even connect to the router via Ethernet. I pinged my router using 64 bytes with 50 echos and got: Minimum = 1ms, Maximum 52ms, Average = 4ms My first attempt I got a maximum of around 450ms on one of the pings. Is there anything I can try that might fix it? Also is there any $50-120 routers you guys recommend

I own this ratty old mouse and it works but I kind of want something better. I was looking at the Death Adder but I wanted the community's input if this mouse is a good value or is there something else I should consider.

My Comcast ISP recently doubled our speed to 50/11

HOLY BATMAN! That's pretty sweet! Intel and Gigabyte stepping up like bosses. Sadly this is my first post and I got to say the forum has improved a TON since its opening. The opening and continued to be slow for a week or two to be slow for me
