I'm located in Irvine in OC. I just noted this am that my connection has been changed from 4 channels down/ 1 up to 8 channels down/2 up.
Could you tell me what zip you're in?
I'm in 92606 (Warner/Paseo Westpark) getting 4 down/1 up, and am wondering if I should upgrade my modem.
An update...I bought a Cisco DPC3010 modem and am now getting 8 down/4 up.
A word of advice to those of you shopping for a new modem in south OC...don't buy a Zoom. I bought a 5341J from Best Buy, hooked it up, got it registered...and it kept resetting every 2 minutes. Techs came out and told me there's a problem with Zoom modems and the local Cox system.
So if you're in Orange County, stick with either Motorola or Cisco.
