modem: my computer goes to this which is plugged into the cable cord. Not using my linksys router right now. its a tiny black box.
Hence why I said lows.Your tracert to rollitup.org is 51 ms, his was 24 ms![]()
Ah. Now I understand. I've done that before. My router is plugged into that. It's what gives the router the internet to distribute. I used to have a Linksys. Now I have a Dynex.but why am i so slow, 2 weeks ago i was getting 1-2mpbs?

i rent it from comcast for like 5 bucks a month. it says its Scientific Atlanta Cable Modem.
+REp for helping him.pretty basic modem if it's the one i'm thinking of. check the signals on the internal page. go to http://192.168.100.1/ and look at the transmit and recieve power. the transmit (tx or upstream) should be less than 55. (really it should be below 50 but most isps settle for 55). the recieve should be between -15 and +15. if these signals are out of range you definately need a truck roll. if your signals are ok then more than likely it is some tcp/ip crap and i don't fuss with that shit. i'm about hardware. but one last time, PLEASE do not underestimate the power of properly powercycling your shit. you have to unplug it all, not just the modem or just the router, and the modem needs to be online before you plug in the router. good luck with that tech support.
Rollitup slowed down for me again so I did another tracert.

No but I'll do that.Thank you.
most isps have a modem history log they can check to verify that there was in fact an issue with your modem on such and such day, and perhaps detect a pattern (although good luck with a rookie rep). you should be able to schmooze some credit that way, just remember that if a truck roll occurs the tech can only detect it if it's physically going on when he checks the tap and wiring.
Earlier today it did it again,
But it disappeared quickly.These things are fun to do! Haha. Tracing Google. Tracing Youtube. To much tracing!
