    I was looking for a new cable modem to replace the one I was renting from Comcast, which was several years old and in need of replacement. This modem was on Comcast's list of approved equipment, so I bought it. My only complaint is that the indicator lights are hard to see when they're not oriented directly toward you. I have no issues with the modem performance at all and would recommend it to others.

    Many stores try to over sell you on Modems, but the carriers only operate at certain levels. This modem handles the speeds that Comcast operates in with ease.
