Wow thanks for the fast reply. Unfortunately, I live in an apartment complex. From the ISP box on the street, the wire is split once, three times, then when that already split wire enters my apartment, it is split again three ways. One of those three ways is plugged into a Verizon box that is not in use, the other goes to my neighbors, and the final goes to my modem. I do not think I can change any of this.

Thanks for your help.
