Improving Comcast modem signal


Our internet service is Xfinity/Comcast or Verizon. Currently I have Comcast service and use their modem because I had trouble with Netgear modem compatibility with Comcast. The problem is that the Comcast modem doesn’t allow LPS. I don’t know about the Verizon modem. So, for people with modem tweaking experience, any suggestions that will make a notable improvement?

The modem is connected via house Ethernet cable to EtherRegen in my listening room, which is connected to Lumin X1 streamer via fiber optic listening room.

Be warned that cable modems are soon to be useless - Verizon is now pushing a white cubed wireless 5G device to feed signals to everything with no cables at all. If this works, and I have no doubt that it does, we luddites using pcs and flip phones will be forced into smartphone land whether we wish to be or not.

@steakster is right.

I misread and answered your question thinking you had an issue with your home router. For a cable modem, it has to be compatible with Comcast and that its mac address must be registered with them.

I had done the same thing with an Arris modem I had, before I switched over to business service with Comcast. It is more expensive but business service gets higher priority and better customer service over normal residential service.

 

"Verizon is now pushing a white cubed wireless 5G device to feed signals to everything with no cables at all."

They've had this for probably two years, although as you say, they've been pushing fixed 5G signals lately.

If you can get Verizon fiber (FIOS), you'll still get faster and more consistent internet than a 5G wireless signal   

Within your house, you'll get a more consistent and faster internet if you used Ethernet instead of WiFi, although it becomes a problem if your house is not already wired for Ethernet.

It's actually on a separate circuit and besides my dedicated listening studio is grounded with a wonderful grounding device. Noise floor is basically non-existent.  

Reading this reminded me of what Mike over at headquarteraudio does:

 

Some here are gonna go ballistic and say it's overkill but it's just only another perspective to be considered.

All the best,
