Thanks for the info on the modem and wireless router. I was wondering why they did not put any Cat5 outlets in a new home built in 2013? Do you know of anyone who can run some Cat5 to a few rooms? In order to get full use of the internet speed you need to plug directly into the modem or router. Wireless is limited in speed. Since I am south of 466A I have a choice of Comcast or Brighthouse. Back when I lived in Ovideo FL we has Brighthouse with Roadrunner and it was pretty good. Our rental house has Centurylink and it is horrible (both TV and Internet).
