WNDR3400v2 w/TWC on a 200Mbps plan
I have recently upgraded from a 100Mbps plan. I have a new Modem that is set for a Gig. When i have the modem hooked directly to my computer I get 260Mbps/20. When I hook up the modem, my speeds drop...
I had the TWC modem/router, but found I had this router that was good to 300Mbps. So I bought a Zoom 5370 modem and connected to the Netgear router.Since I was now paying $10 less for not renting the router, I upgraded the service from 100Mbps to 200 tier at the same cost. I mentioned the speeds above. I need the WiFi for my cell and occasionally for a laptop, so the speedis fine there. But I wanted a faster speed to my computer. Can I put in a switch of some kind, or maybe a splitter, to direct the fast speed from the modem to the computer and still have the router hooked up the way it is?

I don't understand this.
"Hook up the modem" to what?
