Question Atty. The router draws it's power from your internet conection? My connection isn't the best to begin with and it was horrid with the router hooked up. I just disconnected it.

No... it usually has a separate power cord to the router........ Have a link to make/model? You don't want to be connected to the internet directly. You'll probably get hacked (eventually). Use the router......

    The router shouldn't have much if any effect on your speed. IDK what your question is about "drawing power from the internet"... but it should be plugged into the wall power.

    Plug it in. Use it. It has a firewall built in. Otherwise you're basically plugging your computer directly into the internet and saying "please hack me".
