    Let us know how your internet setup went, we'd love to hear! What else would you like to learn about your internet connection? You might see a video about it sooner than you think.

      I did not find a list of recommended routers or modem routers down below as you said am I doing something wrong?

    • @gggypsy
      @gggypsy 6 месяцев назад

      Found your list-they appear to be old. Called my “not so wonderful” internet provider for recommended products- she merely suggested a combo router/modem.
      Your explanation was excellent on routers versus modems.

      Found your list but it appears to be several years old. Called my “not so wonderful” iSP they recommended a combo modem/router.
      Your explanation about modems & routers was EXCELLENT!

    i can't watch this with you referring to a router as "wifi" a router isn't "wifi" it is a device that can specifically connect other networks to other networks and can involve Wi-Fi but doesn't have to be Wi-Fi. dumbing it down in this way misleads your viewing creating a limiter on what the technology can actually do.

    The speed is faster on the ethernet cable, and safer.

    Can a router and a modem be combined in one device? Because i have a modem at house, with multiple port and wireless connection, and I didn't have to buy a router. I'm wondering if you are talking about old modems too.

      @@oosowl522 There are some who do, I haven't found out why but I'm sure there's a good reason for it. Almost every internet provider I've seen here in my country so far uses a modem-router combo device, even ours.

    Still not clear because you said the router is signals for around the home yet they have a Sim slot to receive outside internet so can I buy a 4G router for home internet without having to buy a modem?

      @sorrybutimnotsorry Месяц назад

      he's giving you wrong info here, your router can also perform the function of a modem as can your switch, to limit your knowledge by allowing you to think only a modem can do this is an injustice to your learning. and places a limit on your understanding of what the technology can do.

      I just think, a modem is basically a wireless router and doesnt need connecting up like a router, meaning it doesn’t need to be connected to the telephone lines or whatever it needs hooking up to to actually provide the internet to your devices. Also a modem is just found one similar to a friends modem, its literally a one off payment, you pay for it to arrive to your house (off amazon) you plug it in wait for it to connect to the internet (that i dont know how it does) then you take the passkey on the back and manually enter it on your pc and other devices except your phone because you can scan the qr code and it hooks you up automatically. The downside to modems are, their cheap but for a reason my reason is opinion based, the internet connection on a modem can drop very easily compared to wifi router, because wifi routers are full fibre meaning their underground, where modems are going off signal or something i dont know.
