Last I asked my Mediacom contacts, Mediacom does not allow any modems on their network other than the ones they supply/rent.  Although, that could just be their preference they were telling rather than a hard set policy.

 

As far as routers are concerned, I feel that Netgear makes an excellent product.  I am using one of their WiFi G-band routers with the wifi doubling to 108mbps, as well as an expansion 24 port switch.  Both have been running rock solid for almost 3 years now.

Subject: [MLUG] Decent router, cable modem

 

I'm having problems with the default login on my router.  It's a Linksys and a royal piece of crap.  I'm looking for a stand alone cable modem and seperate router that has decent performance.  The Linksys drops packets all the time - i.e. you can't have an idle ssh session for more than a couple of minutes before it disconnects and now I can't seem to get it back to the default login by pressing the reset button.

Any suggestions on what to get?  It would be nice if the combo provided decent security and is compatible with my Mediacom ISP.

Chris
