thats impossible unless you are on 50mb fiber optic. and i doubt you are paying 350 a month for your net. also if you were on fiber your up and down would be almost the same.

No router, just a cable modem. It's a "Zoom" modem. I didn't install anything. I left everything unplugged all night and it's still the same this morning. I think you meant to say RG6. I don't feel any shock from the cable. Am I supposed to?

no its a good thing that you didnt, static can get built up in the line from carpet, dust.. etc releasing the static keeps your connection fresh and your modem safe.

i have not seen a "zoom" modem but ill do some reasearch on it for you.

It's a Zoom model 5241. It has been working fine for about a year now. I bought it from Staples for like $60 or so. I'll have to use a different internet connection and see if that helps. I'm moving in a few weeks so we'll see.

no i have fiber at my place it cost 37$ a month but the problem is our pud was suppose to have the whole county on fiber with there budet and they fucked up so sence a couple months ago they started charging me for every gig that i go over. im only suppose to use 40 gigs a month last month i paid 220$ extra 1$ a gig. over the phone they said they charged 3$ a gig so i think there slowly going into this because ive had it sence last nov. and this month was a extra 330$ so i took them off automatic pay and im not paying for that bull crap. so this month back to dsl or maybe cable if i can get it.
