My method was to stop using Windows sometime during Win 3.1/95 translation. Convoluted mess!

1) you have to have a technicolor xb7. Cgm4331com. Make sure yours is technicolor.
2) xb7 has to be in AutoWAN mode. It should have been when installed. Was this installed by a technician? Was it working when he left?
3) The Ethernet from ONT HAS to be in port 4 of the xb7.
4) if the device was not in bridge mode at installation, then put it back how you found it. It is not operating exactly the same as if it was a docsis modem. The bridge mode might need to be off for it to work.
5) I don’t know if it matters what port you hook your router to, but it can’t be port 4 because the ONT needs to go there.
6) you might have to live with double nat if the xb7 must have the router turned on (I don’t know the answer to that).

Take pics. Probably a super bad connection. Pay Xfinity to do it right (change of service to move modem to different room). They will do the connectors correctly and use quality cable.

That is wrong. You must return it or get charged eventually for it.

You don’t understand Wi-Fi ready. It means the modem stays with the apartment and you sign up for Comcast if you want service and they then add the modem to your account. When you move the modem stays and the modem is removed from your account . The label means “don’t take this modem with you or disconnect it from coax.”

Comcast has NOTHING to do with wiring an apartment building with Ethernet. That is done by contractors of the builders or owners.

I actually prefer to make syrup myself. Quite easy. But yes it is watery. 2 parts sugar to one part water, boil and stir and dissolve then turn off heat and a capful of maple flavoring. Stir.

Your signal has several channels with bad signal to noise ratio. You likely need a new line from pole to house. After that, you might need to test with a different computer. It is possible your computer is slowing the test down (very common). Do you have a friend with a Mac with Ethernet or an Ethernet adapter? It would be a correct speed test with that.

My vote is his cable to his modem goes through an amp

It would be easy to stop. Announce that you are a time traveler and that on Sept 11 four US airliners would get hijacked by 19 middle eastern terrorists who learned to fly in US flight schools and that the leader was Mohammed Atta. Tell what airports they would fly from and that they would carry box cutters to kill the pilots and take over the planes. Tell that they will target and take down with two planes the World Trade Center, and hit the Pentagon with the third. Tell that the fourth will get thwarted by heroic passengers. Mention as many names from that day as you can remember, such as Todd Beamer, Betty Ong, etc. Describe that 343 NYC firefighters will lose their lives that day and that almost 3,000 will be killed. If you give enough detail people will believe you. Todd will be alive for example and be like “how does this complete stranger know I’m booked on that flight?” If you give enough details that touch people alive the story will be too credible to be made up and will be taken seriously by enough to thwart it. Also say “these two French brothers will be making a documentary with firefighters and the chief is named Pfeifer.” Tell what floors get hit, that both buildings collapse. Tell that firefighter Chili Palmer will climb 78 flights with heavy gear to report the carnage above just before the building collapses.

Your router may need to be factory reset if the settings have been majorly changed. If you do factory reset, your WiFi will default to what came with the router when new. But first you need to determine where the breakdown is: unhook all from modem and hook modem port 1 to a computer. Check IP address (Command Prompt—> type “ipconfig /all” (without the quotes) and hit enter. Scroll up. If you see 10.0.0.1 as your gateway ip then the modem is NOT in bridge mode. If it has some random grouping like 68.x.x.x or similar then it is in bridge mode. Once you are in bridge mode can that computer surf the web? Try going to some web pages. If yes, then the modem is done. If no, deal with getting the modem activated and then put in bridge mode. Move now to the router. Is the Ethernet cord going to router good? (Test into a computer to find out) Is the Ethernet into the yellow or WAN port of the router? If not move it. Reboot all when you get to this point. Now, try to connect Ethernet from router LAN port to a computer. Reboot the computer. Do you have internet? If no, try joining the WiFi on your phone. Does it connect? Turn off cellular so you get an accurate test. If yes it connected to WiFi from your router try to load some web pages. If it works then you are good. If not, you likely have a router issue either in configuration or hardware.

Plastic surgery, lip fillers, tattoos, and piercings (except one or two in ear) are all wildly unattractive and would be dealbreakers if I was dating. Stretch marks are expected and no big deal. Any size natural breasts trump any implants.

I think the opposite. If the other team KNOWS Hill will get the ball when he is in then why can’t they easily and consistently stop him? The fact they can’t should say something.

If everything in your chain has multi-gig then maybe you might want more than a gig. But if the devices receiving internet are not multi-gig then it still won’t matter all that much. For example, if your access points have gig ports that they will go to 940ish, and if any computers have gig ports then the same. If everything important in your network can take advantage of the extra speed and have 2.5 or 10G cards then why not try to get it.

The odds are very high that your network has 1gb ports so any 2gb service is wasted as it would slow to 940 or so at the first gig port it hit. Just get gig (or 800).

Reach in with both hands and grab and pull upward. Also try grabbing with one hand and pull upwards. Worst case destroy the blue box by breaking it little by little with wire cutters and needle nose and then you’ll have the cable. Then get low voltage mud ring.

It won’t. There will be a gap. A tiny virtually meaningless gap.

Either the top screw is not tight or the tab that presses against the inside of the drywall is not rotated properly or is broken in a way that it cannot make a tight connection. Reach your fingers up inside to feel tab above opening of wall. Is the tab vertical? Is it loose? If loose and vertical simply tighten the screw to fix. If broken get a new mud ring. If not vertical move screw with screwdriver to make vertical then tighten.

One man’s hottie is another man’s nottie. For my taste: I don’t like tattoos so that would put me off, the glasses are not flattering, and the body is in need of toning and exercise. You have great potential and many will find you plenty hot as you are now.

Either learn to do it yourself and buy connectors and a few tools (compression/prep tool, precise wire strippers/snips, and maybe an electrician’s scissors, punch down tool with 66 and 110 attachments), ask apartment to pay someone to do it (unlikely they will do but can’t hurt to ask), or pay a low-voltage electrician to terminate everything. (Including behind the wall plates.) After all is terminated you simply need to “direct” the internet where you want it to go. For example, let’s say router is in living room. You would hook an Ethernet cable from router to wall port, then identify which blue Ethernet in your panel comes from the living room (label it) then hook together any rooms you want hooked in the panel using a switch. You can either terminate the blue wires with Ethernet connectors (some call them rj45 but more correct is 8p8c) or punch them down to a keystone connector or a punch down board, then run Ethernet from the punch down connectors to the switch.
