    I have a small business that I do tech stuff for. For the most part, I can do basic stuff. It's a small family business. I called Comcast and asked if I can replace their Modem/Router with my own, and he said that was not an option because of the type of router I have and the services I have. I...

    I recently got banned from this website for using a loophole and getting stuff I didn't earn and I really want to get back on this website. I know they ban by ip because I could get back on that account in other places but not at home and I couldn't make any more accounts. Last night I unplugged...

    Hello! So it's been about 8-9 years since my household got its first modem for AT&T U-Verse, and needless to say, it's beyond time to replace it. I've been searching high and low for a new one but have found myself overwhelmed by info and options that have led to dead ends, hence why I'm here...

I can't access to the Linksys router directly and I've been getting...

There was a modem in the unit that didn't have the internet light when I checked, but I reset it and forgot about it. A few days later I called to subscribe...

    I have DSL through AT&T and just bought a new NetGear R6400 router not realizing I need a DSL modem as well. Any recommendations on a DSL modem would be so appreciated! Or should I return this router and buy a combo router/modem? Thanks!

    For about a week, my boyfriend and I have been without internet. We rent our home, and in effort to try and restore the connection, my landlord remembered that our house does not actually have Comcast service (that is the internet provider we have), but rather a line is run underground from his...
