Got this modem over two years ago, and have not had a problem with it in those two years. It's been up and running for most all of those two years (save power outages).br /br /Took me about 5 minutes to install, including unpacking it and connecting it to my Linksys wireless router.br /br /It's worth noting that I primarilly use Linux, and it works just fine in that environment (it also works just fine under BSD and Solaris). Other family members use Windows (God only knows why), and have not had problems. br /br /Above all else, this modem will QUICKLY save you money over your local cable company's lease rates (five dollars per month for an obsolete sharkfin model with Charter Communications in St. Louis). Well worth the purchase!

I purchased this modem when I signed up for broadband Internet (cable) service. I have been using it for about two years now. I have never encountered any problems and it has never failed to function. The security disconnect function button on the top is a good idea. As a security precaution, I usually disconnect when I am not actually using my connection.
Trustworthy modem February 2, 2004

I bought this modem over a year ago as an alternative to giving the cable company even more of my money via renting on of theirs. Ever since I plugged it in and got it activated it has given me zero problems. The only time it hasn't worked, it was because the internet itself was down.br I like the button on the modem that disconnects you from the internet. It takes maybe a second to connect/disconnect you and protect your computer from any unsavory types who are lurking out there.br I bought a new pc a few months ago and plugged in the modem and it was ready to go right then.br If you're forgoing the $5/mo. rental from your ISP, this baby pays for itself in about 18 months ... or less. And if you move, you can keep the thing, you don't have to give it back to the cursed cable co.
