Hey! So I live in this huge house where there’s a lot of people rented here. There is only one router and it’s extremely far away from me. I use internet a lot so I need a router of my own via cable not WiFi. What are my options? There’s xfinity here. I had my own xfinity router from my old house, plugged it into the tv cable and I don’t get service. What could I do to have my own router and Ethernet ? Thanks!
If your room is setup as an apartment with its own plumbing/cooking, etc. and it has its own official postal address, then you should be able to sign-up for your own personal Internet service.
Otherwise you and the other renters need to get together and have a discussion with the building owner and ask to have better Internet access setup in the whole building.
And the best way to make this happen, is to have someone come in and run dedicated Ethernet cable drops installed to each individual room.
