Have them bring both. LOL

Make sure they are bridgeable as well and get the PPPoE account information as well for use on the DGL router.

Lol,  I have a 7500 already but I can't get into the menu.  Once I bridge either 1, does it really make a difference

[FurryNutz]

Try the 7500. Ya when you bridge modems, you have to factory reset them to gain access to the menu. It's usually disabled in bridge mode.

[revrenc]

i reset it using the button on the back, i still cant get into the menu, the lights seen to be normal, i just cant get to the menu. i meant does it matter which modem i get, since im just gonna bridge it

[FurryNutz]

Ensure your PC is set up for automatic IP addressing. IP to modem maybe 192.168.1.1 or .254?

Whats the gateway listed on your PCs network status, you should use the IP address seen there to access the modems web page.

[revrenc]

ill double check when i get home, but i believe i checked all that already, i did ipconfig/all when i was trying to access it and the gateway was blank in command screen

[FurryNutz]

Ya, if GW was blank in the CMD screen then modem isn't giving an IP address when it should. Ensure that you are resetting it to the Mfr process.

hey Furry, the tech just left. he said that everything looked normal with my lines. and that i would experience some paclket loss. i told him that i use to not get packet loss, but that was a couple months ago. he also said that we werent rated for 3.0 down here, omly 1.5. i told him that ive been running 3.0 for over a year now with 0 packet loss, until recently. he is suppose to get with a guy that works ion the substations and see if they did anything on their end.

[FurryNutz]

Have them check your distances:

Hope they can let you keep the 3Mb speed...

i asked him while he was here if i was on the closest substation. cuz i live about 10 minutes from the one im on and 5 minutes from another one. he said we where already on the closest one, cuz of the way the lines where run

[FurryNutz]

Ok, just making sure.

Did he test out your modems? Which one are you using? 

[revrenc]

the pk5001z, he said that was the best they had right now. he even disconnected the other phone lines in our house to make sure they werent causing problems. we dont have phone service now anyway

[FurryNutz]

Ok. Keep it and so how it does for now. Keep on them about the signal quality.

[revrenc]

i figure it has to b something on their end, i talked to the tech a little bit ago/ he called that guy, but that guy hasnt called him back. he said he was gonna tell him to put me back on FAST instead of INTERLEAVED, and see if he knew of any changes. i want my network squared away for when destiny launches. i hope they can get it fixed. if not i may have to fly you down here. i consider you router JESUS, and i have faith that if u lay hands on the substation you will heal my internets, lol

[FurryNutz]

  Oy vay man. You'll have to talk to the ISP about that LOL.

Keep us posted. Hope they can get it figured out. You really need a cable ISP sir.
