I'm not to good with all of this router stuff. How many times is your signal split. you can wait for someone else to help you or you can go to the networking forum and ask.

Post by HMS White Star »

digital cable does a major job on a cable modem service, I hate digital cable and cable modem combo, there awful I have had lots of customers with problems with both, I used to be level 2 support for RR so I have seen this, a lot.

HMS White Star: What would be any suggestions that you'd have to going about fixing this problem? I have the same problem as well. Every little bit I get disconnected and wait between 15 seconds and 2 or 3 minutes (generally) before I get connection back. It is f**king annoying. And it's not good for my Counter-Strike hab... addiction. :( Thank you for any advice/direction pointing that you can give to me to go about fixing this crap.
