  2. Sometimes modems can be charged with static electricity, and powercycling releases this.  Are you connecting the power adapter to a surge protector, or is it right into the wall?

    Also, the modem might be experiencing interference from another electrical device.  Be sure to keep your modem a safe distance (a couple of feet anyway) from other devices, especially those with magnets or motors.

    Scientific Atlanta makes digital phone (VOIP) modems...do you have one of these?  The phone may be utilizing bandwidth, if this is the case.

    You should be able to log into a diagnostics page for the modem if you are directly connected to it.  Try typing 192.168.100.1 into the browser address bar.  If that doesn't work, try 192.168.1.1 or some other variation.  If you can bring this up, you should be able to check out the power levels and SNR.  Flaps, insertion failures, power adjustments, and such may be unavailable to you (you would have to call up the ISP for that), but you may see something out of whack.  If you can bring these up, post them here for us to take a look at.

  3. I wouldn't do that if I were you.  Modems operate best in a always on and stable environment.  Modems have a nasty habit of not coming back to life when left off for a period of time or being flashed.  Not to mention that your ISP in many cases is monitoring your equipment in realtime and they need information from all the modems on the bridger to obtain accurate results that will be used to improve your QOS.

    i just replaced it last month.. :D

  4. This almost sounds like your modem pulled the previous config (bin) for Comcast when you forced that reset (Comcast recently upgraded to 8mb I blv).  Call your cable company and ask them to use their DOCSIS tool and make sure that you aren't a victim of a billing system gone foul.  Cable ISP's from time to time have issues like this and they have the ability to force your modem to pull the correct bin and be done with it.

    There is of course a possibility that you have a signal issue and when they check your modem I'm sure they will notifiy you at that time if they see anything that doesn't look right.

    I am paying for there 8meg package..when i first got it.would only run at about 5 or 6.. put cablenut on and it jumped to 8...A few weeks later it went back down to 6 megs i cycled the modem the day before yeserday and its back at 8meg now...guess i need to cycle about once a week to keep everything ship shape.. ;)

  5. Thats funny you should post that.the family and I were eating dinner one night when all the sudden we hear a conversation over the computer speakers.We where like WTF!!! i ran over to the computer and shut it down..but the only thing i could think it could be. was voip...i had no other programs open.teamspeak wasnt running either..it was just wierd...

  6. I was wondering why my speeds went from 8megs to 5 or 6 megs...and the funny thing is it was as simple as cycling my modem..I guess modems are like men we get built up and have to release every one and awhile..thanks for the sticky vanburen :D Oh and by the way why is it that the modem slows down till you power cycle? :?:

  7. hey :D

    how do i fit a 4.30GB of movie into 4.7 GB Disk.

    if i have to shrink the size of disk, does that mean i will lose quality or will the movie remain same quailty.

    whats the best software to use to do this AND whats the largest size of data that u can actually shrink to fit onto a 4.7GB dvd.

    also is it it possible to play PC Games that are on DVD media. and can i transfer CD games onto DVD and play them off that.

    LAST THING - if i have a movie that is 8GB and i don't want to shrink it, how can i half the movie and set it onto another disk so that it becomes DISK 1 AND 2.

    thanks ;)

    I dont know if this is what you are looking for.but i use DVD shrink and DVD decrypter..

  8. RAW DEAL! Worst computer deal in the history of scams. They are selling a $300 desktop computer for $2200. They are scamming the public by making it look like an easy payment plan. If the overall price wasn't bad enough, they don't even take on any risk, as they won't ship the computer until you've spent more than $600! Help expose this scam!

  12. which beta are you using?   I have yet to try it but if you are still using beta1 that might be why the speeds are off a bit..  The tests here are cross browser compliant, there is no advantage using one browser over another.
