Blbmbr666 01/04/18 3:31:44 PM #1:	K so I currently have a Motorola SBG6580 functioning only as a modem, and an ASUS RT-N53 as my router. With my computer plugged into the router, I get slowed by any and all WiFi usage, even after adjusting preferences and whatnot in the router itself. Internet package is 60 mbps down, 15 up iirc. So, someone that probably knows more about this than I do, can you confirm that my router/modem is old AF and needs replaced? Or do you think there is some other issue? --- Falco New World Order: http://i.imgur.com/iOYw6Ss.png http://imgur.com/dIifHyi <cite>Blbmbr666 posted [p:893421425] in Help me wi...

Modem Wi-Fi is generally fine in my experience and it's one less hop for your data. <cite>Rexdragon125 posted [p:893421887] in Help me wi...

Modem Wi-Fi is generally fine in my experience and it's one less hop for your data. It's been a bit since I set it up this way, but IIRC the WiFi from the modem was like garbo. Might give it a shot before I try anything else though. --- Falco New World Order: http://i.imgur.com/iOYw6Ss.png http://imgur.com/dIifHyi <cite>Blbmbr666 posted [p:893421943] in Help me wi...
