OK, my modem and router are both a bit "glitchy", I have a Belkin ver 7000 (F5D7230-4) for a router and a Westell ver 6100 (C90-610015-06). And anyways, these routers are relatively new, about 3 years old, and we got them after our old ones crapped out, one a Westell and another a Linksys. On my old router and modem I had no problem, my dad could connect to the internet without having to restart it every fucking time, my down/up speeds were eh, and I could host. Well, when our old modem/router crapped out, my dad had to restart the modem and router every now and then just to connect, my down/up isnt that great, and I cannot port forward things. I tried it with nothing on, no firewalls, nothing. I tried it again with port forward, still wont work, we still experience problems. Verizon finally admitted after our millionth phone call that the modem was bugged. I heard about Static IP, but I dont want to do it until I can fully make sure that might be the reason..(and yes this is a new computer, but I shut off the UAC and their firewall from Vista, so i have the same Firewalls I had before)
Thank you!
