Linksys modem "hesitates" open original image

I just bought a new Linksys cable modem BEFCMU10 to replace the rental from Charter I've been using. I registered the MAC address with Charter and it does work.



However, it seems to "hesitate" (sites don't load smoothly) after I hit a site. I'm also using a Linksys wireless-g router and haven't changed any settings on that. Should I have changed something on the router?



Thanks


Normally the router does not need any tuning, although you might experiment with the MTU setting to see if it has any effect. Set MTU to OFF, then to 1500, then to 1492 to see if it makes any difference. You should run for a few days at each setting.

It is likely that you might see some immediate benefit from leaving the router as it is and "tweaking" your PC connection following the procedure at

and using DrTCP.
