Rogers Modem Query
Morning Folks,
Sunny day isn't it? Any how I just had a quick question to ask.
Basically in the computer loft upstairs I have hooked up the Rogers modem (rental - yes I know) to the cable connection and have my wireless router hooked up (D Link DIR 615). Usually when I connect my phone/tablet or parents laptop to the router either in the family room there's a weak signal and sometimes the connection drops. Instead of spending money on a bridge, or WiFi extender I was thinking the following:
(1) I will be getting a Linksys E4200 to upgrade my current router.
(2) Purchase a Rogers modem through Kijiji same model
(3) Hook it up to the cable connection in the family room or my room (we don't have Rogers TV anymore)
(4) Hook up the D Link router to that modem to provide WiFi or LAN internet to the devices - laptops, phone/tablets, Xbox, Blu Ray
My question is, will Rogers charge me extra for connecting another fully paid/bought modem and then using internet from it? It will also just use the regular bandwidth as opposed to double the bandwidth or something?
Thanks
