Re: How long should a dsl modem last?
There are so many different things that relate to an internet connection.
Problematic lines up the road, older modems, older phone lines in your house, even the computer itself can all affect speed of your connection.
On my main (newer) PC, I see speed tests in the 14-18Mbps range, on my older computer they report back in the 6-8Mbps range, both running XP and on the same local (wired) network but different hardware. The same test on my laptop using wireless on my same home network reports around 5Mbps.

In the past 30 years about 90% of Fords are still on the road, the other 10% made it home.
