For internet access you can use a second modem but it must be connected behind the att gateway (router/modem). I’m just not sure why, in most cases, you’d want.
> is it possible to have a second phone modem in the same house so that she has her own phone number?
Can i have 2 modems in my house. And only the att gateway is connected to the one wall/street connection which you determine at installation time. Yes you can, for example if you have a rental suite and separate internet access there. If you mean two straight cable modem or two combo modem / router gateway devices, most systems no longer allow two modems to be used at one address.
Yes, but a second cable modem will need a second internet subscription. You can follow the question or vote as helpful, but you cannot reply to this thread. Connect your computers to one router or the other, as you saw fit.
Each internet connection would have its own router. Basically the same as powerline, except it pumps the signal through the house coax instead of the house electrical wiring. So my question is if i buy another modem and setup it in my house using same pppoe.
Can i have two routers in one house? Two modems will mean two phone lines (or cable/fttp connections or whatever it may be) and usually that is going to mean two charges (and probably installation fees for installing a second line. > is it possible to have a second phone modem in the same house so that she has her own phone number?
To actually do it, i’d put a hub in front of the two routers. The current generation of gigabit adapters are pretty good, depending again on the wiring in your home. I have the same question (0).
@op, yes you can use a second router as a moca adapter, extending your lan into a room where you have only a coax connection. As rich states, it is possible to have 2 modems on your account, provided you are willing to pay separate charges for both of them. Each would configured to respond to one of your two static ips.
Meaning, if you have too many splitters in line it will fuck up your signals going to your modem. As a matter of fact you can even use more than two if you want. It�s best to call in to see what the local policy is.
As long as the wifi id is not the same on both you will have no problems with multiple wifi signals in the household. You can definitely use a second modem in one house. The setting up process can be a bit irritating if you are not used to it, but the process is pretty straightforward.
Can i have 2 modems? Yes you can i have resently but a device calld maha integrator and it dos the job i connected 4 internet lines to it and after that have don a speed test on my combined lines and it shoes 4 times as moch as a single line in both upload and download if anyone needs one you can call and get one from them the phone number i have behind the device. So technically it would be 2 cable modems on 1 line.
Yes michael, it’s indeed possible to have multiple cable modems in the same house, and it isn’t all that uncommon. You can have a second modem that can be plugged in if the other modem is faulty. Moca adapters can work, depending on what other services you have and the wiring in your home.
@jaroadshow rogers typically won�t allow a second modem in the house unless its on another account, which is usually another rogers customer that is renting part of. In order to have two sacm (stand alone cable modem) in the same home,you would have to take out a second account,ie subscription, as it�s only possibe to have one per account,you can have more than one modem per home. The coax outlet in your office might or might not still have a good line to wherever your main splitter is.
First of all, my short answer for /u/spamnon is that technically you should be able to install a 2nd modem by connecting it to coax. Yes, shaw would want her to have her own shaw phone adapter. Those dsl signals wouldn�t work coming from 2 different modems.
I would ask why do you want to do this? Can i use two dsl modems in the same house at the same time? You cannot have two modems for 1 existing internet service, but if you can invest in a wifi adapter for your computer and get rogers wall2wall service which is only starts at 10$/mon.
You will have consistent wifi service. I’m just not sure why, in most cases, you’d want. No, you cannot have two dsl modems on the same line and you most certainly cannot use the same ppp account twice.
Thats why most companies install the modem off a 2 way splitter from the line coming in. This only works if the house is already wired with. Modem would go into the hub, each router would be connected to the hub, and.
For internet access you can use a second modem but it must be connected behind the att gateway (router/modem). Also you have to consider that modems require the best signal to operate. My parents live 40km away, we have 1 adsl modem at home connected.
Are you simply trying to have internet access in both rooms? Can i use two different dsl modems in the same house for two different computers ? Even if they do allow it, you will need to pay for two accounts (twice what you are paying for hsi now).
You can�t have two modems connected to same telephone line. There are lot of advantages to using two modems like better speed and stability throughout your entire house. Both of which run off of a cable modem, you can have two modems in the house running off of their own coaxial cables.
However, one modem must be dedicated for internet, and one modem must be dedicated to the telephony service. You should have some sort of splitter that allows voice and dsl on the same line. You can test this line yourself with a $15 tone and probe kit, good luck getting one of those during the plague though.
Explain to them that the house is already served by an active cable subscription but your landlord isn’t willing to let. (14,737 views) the link that dslr595148 proviided applies to ethernet connections, not coax.
