(You can learn all this by Googling for it.) How it works: The Modem (Modulator/Demodulator) is the very 1st box the cable service attaches to upon entry to the house, it is Coax cable input and Cat-5 cable output. The Router is the next box in the flowchart. The Cat-5 output of the Modem is fed to the input Jack of the Router using a Cat-5 "Patch cord". The Router provides (commonly) 4 "Intranet" (not Internet) ports and also Wireless connectivity. These 4 ports provide "Hardwired" connectivity; the Wireless is, obviously, your Wireless connectivitey. Modern Routers usually have 2 wireless "bands" (different frequencies) a 2.4Ghz band and a 5Ghz band. Some internet providers supply a rental Modem/Router combo for these functions. You are better off buying your own. Not only is it more cost effective, but that rental box is (usually) also a shared access point for the service provider to allow public access points via YOUR rental box. That can cause speed issues for you. |

Speed Test
Go on line and type in xfinityspeedtest.com in the browser bar. It will give you upload and download speeds. I only pay for the standard Internet $93. They have business class but much more expensive. I do not have cable TV.

Some parts of The Villages have the older DSL protocol over copper wires from CenturyLink and the bandwidth is limited by the distance from the local switching station. Many other parts have the newer fiber optic-to-the-house technology and the supported download speeds are higher. If you are in an older area not support by fiber-to-the-house you may be better off with a different vendor. CenturyLink is a publicly traded company and they may not see a point in upgrading some of the areas from DSL to fiber. There may be significant cost involved with the installation of new capabilities and there may not be the customer base to support the investment. This does not mean they are discriminating. Again, you have other choices.
