Upgrading to gigabit fiber from CenturyLink on Tuesday... stupidly excited. Like the first time I got broadband installed excited.

You should be getting your rated speed with Comcast. If not, start the troubleshooting process with them.

stevewm posted:Our local fiber provider does this too... Residential customers get 1000/500 for $100 per month. (and it regularly achieves 1000Mbps, I know because I have it). But charges business customers 3 times as much for a partly 50/10. Generally speaking, not sure about your specific example, is that the business line will have a much better SLA, better support, etc. And thus the higher price. The lovely part though is that ISPs won't sell residential service to business customers, so it's pretty much just a price gouge.

It's because the port is already defined in the UPnP table, which is beyond dumb. It's a poo poo router.

Yes, I had that modem for a day when CenturyLink installed my gigabit connection. It's garbage. Here's a post on the Plex forums, about half way down you can see the comments about UPnP. Any port that is in the UPnP range will be a problem. https://forums.plex.tv/discussion/226189/century-link-w-technicolor-c2100t-modem It's a poo poo router. I always had an EdgeRouter Lite and replaced it with that after configuring PPPoE on the ERL. If you have fiber coming in they have a model with a fiber port. https://www.ubnt.com/edgemax/edgerouter-x-sfp/

You don't have to get an ERL and you don't have to get Unifi WAPs. There are other solutions to your problem. You can put the current router in bridge mode and use something like the Archer line. I'd check the OP of the home networking thread and post there if you have questions. This thread is a little more "post your sweet speed test results."

Also use a non-admin account, have an adblocker, leave UAC on, etc. etc. But yes, Kaspersky is garbage and should go in the garbage with Symante and McAfee.

Speedtest.net uses Flash and has trouble at higher speeds. Try the beta - http://beta.speedtest.net/

Ihmemies posted:I remember using Kaspersky once, then I realized it actually fucks up the NTFS filesystem of the drives it scans. Only way to fix the corrupted NTFS was to format the affected drives. What were they thinking?! I don't know, but ask my predecessor who decided to buy 10 licenses and then install precisely 1 license. On our main file server. And then rebooted it. In the middle of the day.
