(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Hey guys, My internet is really bad... I have comcast 12mbps.. I have replaced the router modem and even the line running to the house with no avail....Recently I think I have found the problem but I do not knwo if that is the problem. Basically, my grandpa streams movies every day... I have noticed that the internet is fine up until he streams movies, Then I have to reset the modem and router and it will work fine until he streams movies.... ( I have 4 wired computers and 2 wireless on the router) So could it be I need to upgrade my service to th enext tier? Or is this something else? :confused: I Will rep you if you know anything pertaining to this....

Lol It has happened twice and the same result each time... and whenever I reset the thing it goes green and doesnt work lol... Maybe it is the router but I dont think it is..

Hmmm.. Yeah I dont know what makes it like that, it may be your router, so I will ask my neighbor later today.

I would either upgrade my internet package and if you cannot do that when your contract runs out i would go with a different service provider... private message me what internet provider you have and ill do a bit of research for you.

1) Change to different service provider.
2) Limit the amount of computers/other things connected to your router.
3) Make sure nobody is "stealing" your connection.
4) Make sure you havn't got a virus on your computer limiting the speed of your connection; I once had that.
5) If all else fails, you might need to live closer to your local exchange.
