It just started going fast again........ how do i reset the modem?

Unplug the modem and wait a minute then plug it back in. When a provider upgrades you need to reboot the modem to connect properly again.

thats some slow cable, it could have been one of those days when the internet is just slow, or you might have to reset your modem/router.

I only have 1mb. Thats pretty fast in the UK. the maximum you can have is like 3mb I think.. But the prices are getting cheaper. 2 years ago for the price I'm paying now, You could only have like 150kb...
