when your going on a speedtest and its ping takes forever, or download speed is 0.5kb etc etc,

before u get pissed off try this,

DO NOT turn off the modem but pull out the white cable and put it back in, every time i get capped i do this and puts me back to 10mb all the time..

just not sure if any1 else has tried this and had same results.
