 | Is something wrong with my Actiontec? I can be downloading at about 6.2MB/s solid for 20-30 minutes and then suddenly it will drop to around 2.5MB/s until I powercycle it. A powercycle will always bring it back up to around 6.2MB/s.
I am using all LAN ports, but nothing serious.

These connected devices will be idling when the speed drops happen. |

 | Try resetting the modem by hitting the reset button on the bottom of the device. Alternatively, you may also reset from the GUI (192.168.1.254). |

 | reply to seriosbrad Resetting the modem won't fix a drop in speed like that.
6.2MB/s? What kind of speed is your plan? 2.5MB/s is close to what a 25mbps speed plan should give. |

 | 50meg plan is 6.25 MBps maxed out.
I had a similar issue with an Actiontec v1000h with speed drops. Wound up getting it replaced with another. Solved all issues.

 | Yep, I'm on the 50Mbps plan. I'll see if a rep will get a new modem out to me or something. |

 | Have them check the stability of your connection also. |
