I recently had a BT engineer out for an internet fault. He said I should always leave my modem on. He said when I switch off the modem the equipment at the exchange is continuously looking for my modem. He also then went onto say this will result in slower connections.
I know switching my modem off does not result in my connection getting slower as I have been switching it off for years.
Should I be leaving my modem on 24/7 or is it ok to switch it off at night when I go to bed? I just don't see the point of leaving the modem on if it's not going to get used for about 12 hours.
