does it matter whether or not i connect my modem to the basement incoming line or a wall outlet on the second floor? will the strength be stronger in basement?

yeah i have a wireless router and stuff i'm just trying to boost speed because when i directly connect my laptop/360 (via ethernet not wireless) the internet is 50% faster and also want to move it upstairs so that i can play on xbox live in hd hence i want to move the modem and router from basement to upstairs so i just want to know if its going to distort connection strength or not

It should make no difference.

The cable ought to bypass from the wall into the modem and then out from the modem into the prompt router. If there's a prompt modem and a prompt router mixture as you state ( i've got not heard of one even though it probable exists) then it is going to only be under pressure from the cable outlet to the modem/router and then to the workstation. once you get the router it is going to contain classes. it incredibly is common to establish

your cable modem is directly connected with your PC desktop. It's ethernet cable goes from your modem to your computer.
You will need a wireless router. The router is connected with an ethernet cable which will connect into your cable modem.
Depending on the speed of your router it depends which how far is downstair s from upstairs. Get the most distant router ask the professionals in the computer stores. They can tell you what you will need.
