Slow or no Internet is never something you want to happen. The issue could be your internet cable modem. But how do you know when it is time to get a new internet cable modem?
Here’s a checklist for you to determine if your cable modem is the issue. Are you experiencing any of the following?
- You can’t connect to the internet
- Your Internet connection randomly drops out
- You frequently have to reset or restart your modem
- Your streaming is lagging
- Your internet speeds are inconsistent
- Your modem’s indicator light remains unlit
- Your modem runs constantly hot
- Your modem is over 5 years old
There can be many reasons why you may need to replace your modem. However, replacing your modem isn’t a necessarily a bad thing – it can have upsides for you and your home network. Newer modems have a variety of improvements, including faster download speeds, faster uplink speeds, enhanced streaming capabilities, DOCSIS 3.1 capabilities and more.
