[QUOTE="PGB1, post: 1813518, member: 76746"] Thanks XJ-linux for the explanation. Based on your explanation, it sounds like an 8 x 4 will be fine for us at 30 Mbps and possibly 100 Mbps in the future. I'll be sure to see if it is on the ISP approved list. The ISP tech support said if the modem is on their list under the column for the speed we will use, they can update the firmware to ensure it runs the protocols they use. (it sure was a challenge getting to a tech who knew what I was asking!) I'll shop in their 100 Mbps column, since we may eventually get that speed when they phase out the 30 Mbps tier. Their next tier is 1 Gbps, and we will never buy that speed because it's really expensive. Actually our 30 keeps up, even in the evening. (As long as it isn't raining) Thanks Again Everyone for helping and educating! i sure appreciate everyone's advice. Paul [/QUOTE]
