I could not find much on the Internet, and that is because there isn’t much.
I found a model number on its back (E31T2V1). I decided to leave well enough alone and let both the components be for awhile.Īfter several months past, though everything on my network again returned to the aforementioned euphoric digital state, I could not get a comfortable feeling about the modem.
For the modem, there was no access point, and I really could not tell anything about it. It had a lot of the “right” configuration options, and I felt fairly comfortable that it was at least an “OK” router. After the components were installed, I got into the router and configured it. When the installer connected these two components, I noticed the new router and modem were simply branded “Spectrum”. They started with the most obvious problematic source, replacing my old Ubee combo router/modem, with a new and separate router and modem. I will say that Spectrum did a good job in resolving the connection issue (that turned out to be a bad cable connector located on a telephone pole behind my property). Also, I have VOIP, so my phones went down every time there was an internet disconnect, only to return online after the routers, modem, and hardware firewall came back to life. After each disconnect, my Ubee modem/router combo would restart, then my hardware firewall would restart, then some or all of my iOT’s wold fail to reconnect to the wifi portion of the router (and then be nudged by me manually to get them back on the network, or to my wifi extender). It went from “bad” (disconnecting from the Internet a half dozen times or so a day) to “horrible” (disconnecting over 30 times in one afternoon).
Recently, that wonderful euphoric digital state ended rather abruptly. It is the fastest I can get in my area, and for the last couple of years, it has worked flawlessly. I use Spectrum Cable with a 300 Mbps download plan for my Internet.
