    Hmm... Seems like a settings issue if the modem worked at the service center and not at your home. I had a similar issue but that was ages ago and dont really remember much about it. I would suggest looking under modem settings and see if something needs to be changed. You could just doa google search your problem and see what turns up. Sometumes it might be really helpful.

    Good Luck.

    Yeah, check your internet settings and make sure that you have the lastest version of the modem drivers, but if it worked at the service center, then is has to be a setting somewhere.
