Do I need a wireless modem to have wireless internet access in my home?
You need a wireless modem but you also need the internet connection. You should call your cable company for some options. Comcast cable lets you rent the modem from them if you have service already. New customers often get good deals at most cable companies.
Why would unplugging and then reconnecting a LAN to a DSL modem make an Internet connection work again?
It's not that it makes the Internet respond, it makes your DSL modem respond. Occasionally DSL and Cable modems will become unresponsive for whatever reason. Disconnecting and reconnting the Internet connection cable is one way to "wake up" the modem. Often that doesn't work and you have to reboot the computer or power-cycle the modem. Annoying but sometimes necessary. The way my ISP, who gave me my DSL modem to use, explained it is that, like a computer, every now and then, the modem just needs to be reset or rebooted, much like your computer
What type of cable and connectors are used to connect a modem to a phone port?
To connect a modem to a phone port, a standard telephone cable, often referred to as an RJ-11 cable, is used. The connectors on each end of the cable are RJ-11 connectors, which fit into the phone port on the wall and the modem. This type of connection is typically used for DSL modems that utilize existing telephone lines for internet service.
What is null modem cable and what is often used for?
A null modem cable is a type of serial cable that connects two devices directly, allowing them to communicate without a modem. It typically links two computers or devices by crossing the transmit and receive lines, enabling data transfer between them. Null modem cables are often used for direct device-to-device communication in applications like data transfer, programming embedded systems, or connecting older hardware that relies on serial communication protocols.
What is rollover connection?
Rollover cable (also known as Cisco console cableor a Yost cable) is a type of null-modem cable that is often used to connect a computer terminal to a router's console port
When setting up a home network, what is more efficient a cable modem or a dsl modem?
The question of whether "Is DSL or Cable better" will often come down to the local area you live in. Speeds are going to be very dependent on how close you live to your local DSL hub and whether or not your Cable provider has updated their connections with fiber optic technology.
How do you configure TC7200 Modem?
To configure a TC7200 modem, first connect your computer to the modem via Ethernet or Wi-Fi. Then, open a web browser and enter the modem's IP address, typically "192.168.0.1," in the address bar. Log in using the default credentials, often "admin" for both username and password, and follow the setup wizard to configure your internet connection settings, Wi-Fi network name, and password. Finally, save your settings and reboot the modem if necessary.
What is the function of modem card to the CPU?
A modem is a serial port interface to a telephone line, allowing you to create dialup connections to other modem equipped computers. Often, a modem card includes a serial port interface, a COM port. The term modem has also become applicable to other interfaces, such as DSL modems and cable modems, though that usage is tenuous in some cases. Modem stands for Modulator/Demodulator.
The World of the Wireless Cable Modem Router?
Wondering what your home would be like without a wireless cable modem router might not be something that you want to think about. There are too many issues that some people have to deal with, and router problems are often not something that many people want to bother focusing on in their home.
Why do you always have to reboot your router more than once a day?

What are the major differences between cable modems and DSL modems?
Cable modem connects through fibre optic DLS through phone line. Cable boasts faster speed than DSL Internet in theory. However, cable does not always deliver on the promise in everyday practical use. Cable modem services can slow down significantly if many people in your neighborhood access the Internet simultaenously. Both cable modem and DSL performance vary from one minute to the next depending on the pattern of use and traffic congestion on the Internet. DSL and cable Internet providers often implement so-called "speed caps" that limit the bandwidth of their services. Some home networks cannot match the speed of the Internet connection, lowering your performance
What is a wireless data modem?
A wireless modem is a modem which connects to a wireless network instead of to the telephone system. When you connect with a wireless modem, you are attached directly to your wireless ISP (Internet Service Provider) and you can then access the Internet. Basically it's another type of modem that lets you connect to the Internet anywhere in your home or workplace without using a wire/cable! Cool!
