The goal was simple: Get rid of the monthly cable modem charge. On sale, the Arris 6190 will have paid for itself after six months. Intel has issued a firmware update to correct the lag/slowdown issue with the chipset in the modem and I've see no evidence of any problem after over 40 days of connect time. This includes streaming videos, music, gaming and data. Both IPv4 and IPv6 are supported. Currently on a plan that runs 400Mb and I can peg the download speeds. The channel spread gives me the headroom to increase my bandwidth in the future. it's all good!

When I need consistency and speed (always) I like to get away from the provided modems. This model set up fairly easily and handles the speed and connections I need with ease

It's so ridiculously simple to install this modem, my only regret is that I didn't do it sooner. Now I have fast internet and am no longer paying Cox a monthly rental.

Bought the modem to reduce our cost to the cable company. It works well, was easy to hook up and results in a decreased of approximately $10 monthly for our cable bill.
