I regularly stream using my existing broadband (20MB) wireless with a 54MBPS dongle.

I need to find another ISP but I have to know the minimum speed needed to stream online.

I also need to find a reasonably piced ISP who would supply a wireless router but that may be another question for another time.

Hey everyone. I’m planning on changing my ISP. I have broadband at the moment and I have a modem. The plan I want to get on charges setup fees. If I already have a modem, do I need to pay this?

Since my ISP ventured into the voip over cable business, my quality of service has seriously degraded, with frequent disconnects and a lot of page not found or server unavailable error messages. I would chalk it up entirely to an overextended network due to the rapid expansion, but some sites routinely are difficult to access, including major voip competitors’ sites.
Yes, I have a firewall, but the programs that need to access the internet are all on my exceptions list.

My ISP is Charter :-(

I have tried typing the getaway you find when you run cmd. My browser tells me error. I want to access this router but I am not sure my isp allows it. I have done research and found out I have to change router port settings to make downloads via torrents faster. The problem is where is my router and how do I access it.

I am living with 3 other people in an apartment, the only ISP we can get only gives you one crappy plan, and it is a lot to pay for it every month, it would be easier if we’re all sharing one line. But the ISP seems to have a way to detect if there are multiple people on the router at once, and kicks the extra people off the internet. What can I do to make my ISP unable to detect when there are multiple people on the same router? I have heard something about cloning the IP address from a friend who lives in the neighborhood, but he’s not sure how it works either. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

My ISP is severely throttling FTP, p2p, msn transfers, infact anything that involves transferring files (including email).

Whats the best way to publically humiliate them to force them to change their policy?

Anyway to see if my ISP (comcast) is capping my downloads? I upgraded to the 50/5 speeds a few months ago, last month the speeds to seem have dropped. Gaming pings have risen and torrent speeds are crap.
