Turn off internet security that was just released by spectrum and other internet providers to block our service. This will not affect your internet security. They have just implemented this on 9-24-25 as a way to force customers to pay them for their cable services. Turning of their internet security will NOT affect your internet safety in any way.
We also HIGHLY recommend getting your own router and modem. It can really help everything work better.
