    Will Adding More Modems Cause Issues to My network?


    Hi guys.. I have 2 modem at home: a modem-router for internet and another modem for phone only. I'm thinking of adding 1 or 2 more modems to my network. Will this cause any issues?

    This'll help, I think... How to Increase Bandwidth With Two or More Routers | Small Business - Chron.com

    Or use a network hub!

    In most cases you can only have one connection at a time so unless you have more than one paid connection you can't use more than one modem

    Right, a Modem [modulation/demodulation] relies on one signal from the ISP whether Dial-Up of years ago, phone line DSL, Cable/Broadband connection or Wireless DSL [different from Wi-Fi]. Two feeds from the ISP could allow 2 Modems then maybe bridging in Network could improve downloads. Downloads are not just files but all the data seen in the Browser.
