    My old modem was acting weird, and it was suggested to me that it may be time to update it. After checking compatibility with Comcast, I chose this 6141 modem. It is working great and getting really fast speeds. Very pleased!!!

    Fantastic modem. Easy to set-up and use in-place of the cable one I was renting. More people should purchase their own modems and use them. Saves you money in the long run and you typically can get a faster download. I've had no throttling issues and have a more constant speed than I had with the Cable Company provided one.

    This modem provides the fastest and best internet connectivity I have seen yet. It peaks my download/upload rates to as much as my internet service provider allows. Usually you pay for 20MBPS for example, but only get 10MBPS out of it. Not with this Modem!!

    This worked perfectly to replace my leased cable modem. It actually gave me a little more speed as well. The old modem I had was for phone as well so maybe that's why? Pretty hard to find something that literally pays for itself, buy it!

    As my internet provider improves its service, I found it important to upgrade my older DOCSIS 2.0 modem to take advantage of these improvements. This modem was recommended and I'm glad to indicate that it improved the speed and stability of my internet access.

    Nice purchase meets all my needs for gaming and Internet. Two downsides to this product which really aren't bad is the led's are bright so if in your bedroom it will keep u up if u like it dark and only one Ethernet port if u want to hook more up to it

    If you're paying rental fees to your cable company, this pays for itself in under a year. Even if you're not paying rental fees, having your own modem and router often allows more flexibility than what the cable company allows.
