thanks...I'm gonna go have them test the modem at the local office
probably Fri. since I get off work around noon...if that's not the
problem..they are set to come out here and see Monday afternoon
between 1 and 3.
just now did another speed test...here's the results

after that one I did another one that was the same results as I posted
in my earlier reply...I hope it's a simple repair job of either the
line or hopefully replacing the modem if that's the prob. Thanks again
for the info
Sorry to keep posting, but I just downloaded the sped test add pn foranother quick question...if it is a problem with the line, wouldn't my
ipconfig say 126 or 169. whatever instead of 74. whatever? Also, in
refrence to someone earlier saying that's my best bet to contact
Toshiba, someone I talked to online with Suddenlink said that's not
correct for the tech guy to tell me that when I bought the modem from
Suddenlink...not to mention the modem is an older model not listed
with Toshiba...
Mooky, I had similar problems with my modem last week and went crazy between
modem provider and ISP, just like you did.
Went to Network Setup Wizard in Control Panel, and followed the procedure
there.
Everything has been fine for several days now.
Good luck. Mary
thanks...hope yours stays ok...so should I just create a new
connection then? not sure if it'll work..willing to try
anything..gonna go to local office with modem to see of they'll test
it tomorrow.
just did a few more speed tests usiong Firefox as I did earlier....

In my case, none of the diagnostics were conclusive of anything but the
wacky connections persisted until the cable was closely inspected. The cable
company couldn't keep the squirrels out of the junction boxes. They just
gnawed their way in every time.
Good Luck
mooky said:Well after losing the connection totally 2 times yesterday evening, I
know believe that it's more than likely a cable line problem. Also did
the ip config when it did that and got the 169. yadda yadda come up. I
know it'll be a major hassle going to the local office with my modem.
Last time I had to go down there for something, they gave me the
runaround...I'll just wait until Monda when they get here...thanks for
the info.
