Re: Why? said by wifi4milez:
It is very unusual for a modem to last that long. Weird. I've owned and operated the the same Motorola SurfBoard modem 24/7/365 since 2001. I've saved TONS of money by buying. Every time Comcast made an upgrade, I got a commensurate speed increase. I've NEVER had to reboot it for any reason other than a human at Comcast screwing something up at head end. I'm sure 10 Mbps downstream is almost average nowadays, but should I decide to move up to the next tier and get a D3 modem, I definitely don't see myself renting a new one. They'd probably want to sell rent me a locked down wireless router too. Are Motorola's really that much better than any other modem? Just my experience, FWIW.
