Improving Comcast modem signal


Our internet service is Xfinity/Comcast or Verizon. Currently I have Comcast service and use their modem because I had trouble with Netgear modem compatibility with Comcast. The problem is that the Comcast modem doesn’t allow LPS. I don’t know about the Verizon modem. So, for people with modem tweaking experience, any suggestions that will make a notable improvement?

The modem is connected via house Ethernet cable to EtherRegen in my listening room, which is connected to Lumin X1 streamer via fiber optic listening room.

LPS? Linear Power Supply?

Are you loosing packets? If your not dropping the signal, not loosing packets, what is it your looking for?

I went from Cat 5 to Cat 8 that was an eye opener. I use Comcast and their router with the noisy power supply. I did fix their problem they couldn’t.

12.00 GL eliminator.

LPS = Linear Power Supply

GL eliminator. = Ground Loop eliminator. 12.00 dollars US.

Thanks. I don't have any noise now with 93% efficient speakers. No mater where I plug mine in the with an external PS it has a ground loop issue. The only piece of gear that does that. It's less than a year old. Great transfer speeds with Cat 8 from Cat 5. The GL eliminator shut the stupid thing right up. 

I've tried 3 of the neighbors PS too. Same thing. You should hear it with Klipsch 103s they will run you out of the room. Neighbors rig.. GL eliminator fixed it right up.

Thanks Ay..

skso, you have any problem with noise and the power supply to your Comcast modem? Everyone I get I have to tinker with to get rid of the GL issues.

Mine are quiet as a mouse now. I put a brick on mine too with a dampening mat between them too.

"Shooting yourself is preferable to going to the "store" around here." Where on earth do you live? I use to visit El Pueblo in Pittsburg CA. One way in and no way out if you got in trouble.. I'm a blue eyed Anglo! I never had a problem.

Same when I use to work the fields with the locals cutting asparagus, dabbing corn, hoeing tomatoes, picking cherries, cotts and the packing sheds. Late 60s I got along because I worked and paid attention. I kept my mouth shut. I still carry a straight razor.

As for guns they just don't scare me, never have. I do respect them.  A pickup truck is a lot more convincing. I've chased a few through the city park.. My dog loves it..

Pickup truck and a Mauri War Club.. I put on Gaelic War paint there can be a problem.. "fag un benlach" Clear the way.
