Lots of missing information here.

- What speed tier are you on?

- What speeds are you getting?

- Wired or wireless connection?

- Why do you want to delete devices from the router?  Their presence won't affect your speed.

- How many STBs do you actually have?  You shouldn't delete them since they need an internet connection for VOD and guide data.

BTW, the MI424-WR is a router, not a modem.

- What speed tier are you on? 75 mps

- What speeds are you getting?  84.17 download / 39.08 upload

- Wired or wireless connection? Wired

- Why do you want to delete devices from the router?  I wanted to delete so i have enough ip's to add another laptop. I tried to add a laptop last night and it said that the wireless connection is not avaiable but it was shown in network connections

- How many STBs do you actually have?  I have You shouldn't delete them since they need an internet connection for VOD and guide data. I have four boxes with built in dvr. I dont know if that answers the question.

 

I just wonder if i should leave the coax alone and can i add additional devices to the router.
