    Easy to set up, I did not have to call Comcast and deal with their phone tree or endless security questions, which is a plus. Now if Comcast could only output the speeds that this modem can handle.

    old modem died and this was the suggested one. hardest part of installing it was having to contact the local cable company, midcontinent, to get it hooked up finally. good product so far no problems.

    I was leasing an old cable modem and a family member highly recommended the Motorola SURFboard. Now I recommend it to others as well.

    Definity a good product, but cable company moving from 8 to 16 channels. I had to upgrade to the next model (6183). Recommend the brand, just check the best model for your area!
