Stats: Intel Core i3 3.06 GHz 10.6.x Snow Leopard Airport Extreme 802.11n Comcast modem with telephony
Comcast has decided that I need a new modem and is sending one to me. I am supposed to install it myself. Currently my set-up is iMac>Airport>modem. I have no problems connecting to the internet with desktop, laptops and iPad 4 and all using the same printer. However, Comcast is recommending that I connect the modem to the iMac and not use the Airport. I don't know what to do. If I discontinue using the Airport, how does it affect my home network? What set up would you recommend? If I use the same set up that I have, does the Airport impede the Internet speeds? Currently, I am getting 28.8Mbps download (Ping 31ms; IPv4); 5.78 Mbps upload [from Comcast's speed test] We have Comcast Performance and not the higher price Blast. Jane Have any of you who use Comcast TV-Phone-Internet bought your own modem? -- -- You received this message because you are a member of the iMac Group, a group for those using Apple iMacs and eMacs.
