Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

A very newbie question regarding modem and router IP address

A very newbie question regarding modem and router IP address
Yes to both questions. As I said after 1-3 days internet becomes extremely slow/unstable, it happens to both wired and wireless connection so it means the whole connection is going haywire somehow. Yes, to fix the connection temporarily for 1-3 days again, it's enough to unplug the ethernet...- supo

A very newbie question regarding modem and router IP address
What does MAC cloning do exactly? Yeah I have factory reset both several times and started from scratch etc. I don't think I have a line issue though since if I use only my ISP modem/router alone everything works perfect, but when I use any external router then connection becomes bad after a...- supo

What happens to me is that my Internet connection works perfectly for ~2 days then suddenly it slows down to a crawl and becomes unusable, can barely open a website etc. To fix it temporarily what I do is I just unplug my ethernet cable from the back of the modem and plug it right back in then...- supo

A very newbie question regarding modem and router IP address
As far as I know though, isn't it always advised to put your modem/router combo in bridge mode when you connect another router to it? So that there won't be any NAT issues etc.? I have a Sagemcom Fast 3890V3 modem/router (from my ISP) and a Netgear Nighthawk XR500 connected to it.- supo

A very newbie question regarding modem and router IP address
Umm..if I take my modem/router out of bridge mode then my own router gets 192.168.x.x yes however when I enable bridge mode then I get something that is very similar to my Public IP adress from the ISP but not the exact same one. So this is wrong? In bridge mode, I should get 192.168.x.x...- supo

I did call them two weeks ago, they did a signal check and all was fine however when I put it back into bridge mode the guy on the phone said he could not access the modem etc As far as I know I don't need any ppoe creds, never needed all these years and it was working flawlessly.

Yes I see. However I'm just wondering how they can fix it though? I mean what do they have to do technically so that dhcp renewal is working properly?- supo
