Signal stregthen and everything else is the same... except for the LAN ip address. That has also changed. The router had the same IP schema as the modem, but this time it has a 10.0.0.x schema. I thought that was weird, but I'll try adding the PPPoE information on the router and put the modem in bridge mode and see what happens. :)<div>
