they won't know it's his, but you'll have to call them and give them the serial or MAC address of your new modem.

 

it will work, but you will have to set your new modem up with your ISP.

We can't Benchmark like we used to, but we have our ways. One trick is to shove more GPUs in your computer. Like the time I needed to NV-Link, because I needed a higher HeavenBench score, so I did an SLI, which is what they called NV-Link back in the day. So, I decided to put two GPUs in my computer, which was the style at the time. Now, to add another GPU to your computer, costs a new PSU. Now in those days PSUs said OCZ on them, "Gimme 750W OCZs for an SLI" you'd say. Now where were we? Oh yeah, the important thing was that I had two GPUs in my rig, which was the style at the time! They didn't have RGB PSUs at the time, because of the war. The only thing you could get was those big green ones.

They won't find out by the MAC address?

Before you do this make sure you have the factory login and password for the modem.

Get a paperclip. Turn on the modem, doesnt need to be hooked into the wan. Put it in the little hole, usually by the power button, press the button in there for about 15-20 seconds, or until the lights flash on the modem. This will restore it to factory defaults. All passwords and settings will be erased. Then plug it into your internet wan port and computer to start the connection process. Follow the steps to set up your internet.

It's always a good day if you woke up breathing.
