don't buy anything from belkin oh my fucking fuck

[Autistic Spectrum]

i know the model number of my router off the top of my head, my life is very full,

belkin sells decent cables if you are in a dire need or a hurry (staples, bestbuy, etc), spiffy generic mouse pads too.

no it's tacked on to your cable bill each month forever, but it's literally 5 bucks

stevey, get them to come and give you a new cable modem with a wireless router built in, dp is right... fuck that shit

[Autistic Spectrum]

if it breaks and cable modems always break you just bring it back and get a new one

[steveyos]

at 5 a month it would take almost two years to come to 105 dollars and I'll be out of rhode island and using something that isn't god damned overpriced fucking junk cox/verizon BECUASE THAT'S LITERALLY TEH ONLY CHOICES IN FUCKING FAGGOT RHODE ISLAND so I guess if it actually is 5 then it's worth it, as long as I can at least break it at the end then break the fucking skulls of everyone who works at both of those isp's and also kill everyone at belkin

[steveyos]

they already charge so much for the damn internet, if they're gonna take 5 extra dollars from me a month just to give me something they should give me for free can I at least break it on purpose a few times a year with free replacments?

they SHOULD give it to you for free. why don't you call and shout at them?

stevey nobodys going to hack you
you don't need your router firewall for a basic home network, leave it off. leave dmz off. don't forward ports unless a specific application recommends it, then forward only those ports.

then get a system firewall like PC Tools firewall plus so if something gets by your antivirus (which should be Avast, and nothing else) then it won't be able to go online, but nothing ever gets by avast

he shoul;dn't even have to get pc tools firewall, he has windows 8. he can just use security essentials do what you're saying, leaving everything open. the router could have some buggy firmware in the first place. i've had cheapo linksys stuff like that

if you have any other isp's in your area, just tell them THIS IS IT I HAVE HAD IT, FUCK YOU,,,, I'M SIWTCHING TO whatever the fuck, and they will give you the new subsicber rate or take money off, i do it once every year, when the new subsicber rate runs out,

ya threaten to leave and they'll give you a retention plan
insist on getting a free modem/wireless router

[steveyos]

I'm gonna look into verizon's prices though, if they're advertised as cheaper I'm gonna tell cox I'll switch if they don't meet or beat their prices including the modemrouter and if they me I'll just switch because verizon's had its own verizon-branded modem/router thing for years now oh my god they both suck so bad though I can't stand it I gotta get out of rhode island

This ^ and with a 100% Perfect payment history will make them jump hurdles to Not lose a great customer, if your payment history is severely flawed they don't and will not give a fuck if you move on to another provider.

steve yelle the section 8 poster child

if you don't care about being with out interent or cable for a week acutally cancel, and they will call you before they have to come and get the boxes like 3 days later and give you the best rate they possibly can,

[steveyos]

the router's firewall is off

the problem is the only two isp's in fag island are cox and verizon and both of them are filled to the brim with because they both fuck everyone over royally so they know I know if I go back to verizon I'm just gonna be in the same shit

it's ok though, if the cisco router actually works then it'll be worth the 5 a month and if it doesn't work and they don't fix it then I'll start slicing throats, then in two years when I'm out of rhode island forever and I find a new isp if they don't provide their own stuff I'll have the money to get a really good modem/router

if the belkin's access point feature isn't bugged to shit then I will keep it though because the cisco uses that new internet thingy not ipv6 but some other thing I can't remember and it makes the wifi range a lot shorter, so if I can I will use the belkin as a range extender because it sure as fuck has great wifi range I can get wifi up and down my entire street, but if the access point mode shit is broken too I'm gonna just gonna use the router to cut open every person at belkin

[steveyos]

I wish I could just screw the coax wire directly into my desktop

[blumpkin blownuts]

whatever you do always turn off ipv6, right now enough people are refusing ipv6 that it could get abandoned, which means world governments won't be able to use this cheap and easy weapon for their fight against free expression

do not turn off ipv6 on an AD network or really anything with a windows server in it or you're asking for trouble

if people refuse ipv6 eventually there wont be enough ip addresses to go around lol

[blumpkin blownuts]

there's better solutions that don't incorporate geomapping addresses to physical nets

i figure we'll just add another NAT layer, i'm not a network expert but i think that will be much easier and still preserve the tiny amount of privacy we do have

[Autistic Spectrum]

it will be like the uk where's theres only 10 ip address's

i have an alien ware computer and a belkin router

[steveyos]

without the lizards obviously, but we'd have ot keep ruby locked up because you know he'd give them wires

[steveyos]

what we really need is to just send a wire between each of our houses and just have our own little internet, a... rubynet

it would become self aware and destroy the world like in terminator

[steveyos]

and he'd break his back and arm trying to pick up a gun

[steveyos]

except it would just be ruby with a mask on of that ugly asian lady from I guess the newest terminator movies or some shit after he finally snaps
