Hey. Having some router issues in a new house; three people using a 15 mbit line. I'm using a cheap dlink router, and I think that's the problem. We get connectivity issues (wired) and it needs resets often for my brother to be able to play online multiplayer, and he's been having tons of issues. So that said, with regards to the op, is the info there still good as far as buys? I'm looking for something in the 75 and less range if possible.

Update! I was running a dir 601, which has dog poo poo firmware. Apparently it works with dd-wrt, which I'd never used, but installing it seems to have fixed all the issues I was having.

I got a sb6141 so i dont have to rent the wifirouter combo pos from time warner. Got it hooked up after spending an hour putting dd wrt on an old linksys I have to replace the router part of the modem they provide Called up twc and it flashed some lights and stuff but never completed the connection. The tech said i probably have to talk to arris or replace the modem. That said, he only had me power cycle the modem once and the call lasted about 25 minutes. In the end he re registered the rental modem so i could use internet til i was ready to try again. I get the feeling i might have better luck trying the automated activation and fiddling around a bit for while. Does anyone have experience with the sb6141 not working right off the bat? Any advice?

Im not using anything special for dns or anything so it shouldn't be that. Ill mess around a bit with the automated activation; i dont think the tech was on the same page as me aboutt what was going on. If i cant get it running with a few restarts and a little time i guess ill have to make an exchange at best buy.

So I replaced my defective 6141 with another, was able to get onto the internet, but it's being kind of not great. I went through arris and all my signal stuff looks good. The logs screen, however, is having failed range responses and this happy fella "SW upgrade Failed after download - Incompatible SW file" It seems to me that TWC is pushing the wrong file and my modem isn't taking it, but would that make my connection lovely half the time?
