    I changed my ISP provider and needed a new Modem (why pay $8.50 a month to rent theirs). I already had a great router. Based on the ISP list of recommended modems, I researched online and settled on the Surfboard modem. No setup needed. I plugged it in, connected with my router and was ready to go. I have so far been very satisfied with the connections.

    I had been running my cable through an older modem saving money by not renting from Comcast. After upgrading my hardware my bandwidth speed still seemed slow so I bought this little guy, and wow my connection speed more that tripled. I'm not a fan of the white case though. It would look great if I lived on using Apple products, but it's not a deal breaker. The one big annoyance is the VERY bright blue light the illuminates out the (Left) side vent and front panel. A few 'lightdims' took care of the front panel (yes google lightdims you will love them). All things accounted Great modem.

    I pay for 50Mbps with Comcast and I get 50Mbps with this modem which was really surprising. It was easy to setup and had it running right away. I use the internet for everything and play some online games and this modem works great.

    This modem works great with the Apple Airport Extreme. It is very compact and does not take up much room. Just have to plug it in to the wall and router, give your internet provider a call and they will take care of the rest. I recommend buying one and will save you lots of money rather than having to rent the modem from the internet provider.

    Getting TWC internet for my home I decided better bargain to purchase my cable modem rather than pay $8/month. Did my research and decided this model would provide great download speeds for multiple devices and optimize my internet connection speed (30M). It works great and this unit will pay for itself in rental savings within 10 months.
