I have had probelms connecting for the last two days and it ends up my cable modem died. It would connect long enough to pull up half a webpage then drop the connection. Cox had been doing Maintenance in our area so I thought it was them. Had a tech out today and ended up going out and buying a new modem.

Oh well at least I am now back on!!!!!

It was rough for the last three days with nno internet!!!!
 
It was all those dasm large flushes! 😉

😛

Glad to see you back! 😀

More in 04! 😀

Speaking of back...where's Reagan? Haven't seen around in awhile? 😕

Good for you 😀

Hey B,

What Brand of Cable Modem was that one that died?

I'm trying to keep somewhat of a track of Broadband failures especially Cable Vs DSL units.

Thanks
 
Comcast upgraded my modem (for free!) a while back, and I keep the old one as a spare. About a month after using the new one, my internet stopped working. After 24 hours, I tried hooking the old modem back up, and everything worked! I then hooked the new one up again and it started working again. Weird...
 
Got a spare router here, and a spare switch or 2 to keep all the boxes connected, will have to get a spare modem next time i see a good deal on one. 🙂

Then again, my cable isp was giving me a discount for owning my own instead of using one of thiers, now sincwe the discount went away, maybe i'll have em bring me one of thiers and keep mine as a spare 🙂
