How to Tweak a Comcast Modem

You can tweak a Comcast Internet modem by adjusting the modem's configuration on your computer. Your Comcast modem has no LED or LCD indicator screen of any kind, so any configuration changes to the modem can be done on your computer using the Network and Sharing Center. The Network and Sharing Center is a native utility found in your Control Panel that lets you manage all aspects of your computer's networking connections. This will allow you to make any changes you'd like to the way the modem operates.

Instructions

1. Right-click on the "Network Connection" icon in the Windows operating system task bar. Click "Open Network and Sharing Center" to expand the Microsoft Windows Network and Sharing Center across your computer monitor.

2. Click "Change Adapter Settings."

3. Right-click "Local Area Connection." Click "Properties" to pull up a window containing aspects of your Comcast Internet modem that you can tweak. Make any necessary changes to the configuration of this modem by either selecting options from drop down menus (wherever applicable) or by inputting commands into text boxes using your keyboard (wherever applicable).

4. Click "Apply" to save the tweaks you've just made to your Comcast modem.
