Hi All. This may interest some of you . I have cable with an external Modem supplied by Server. They giver you the Modem when they install the cable, that way it is my responsibility when something goes wrong with it . Sonme thing did . Could not get On Line . Was told by the Support Team the Modem had had it , Kaput. $130 for new one . Played around with it , found by holding the power plug into the back of the Modem , it worked OK. Solution , large elastic band , a piece of wire , secured the wire and elastic band around the power plug , and around the modem and back onto the power plug , it held it in securely . Cost , one elastic band. Lionel.
