Re: [CA] channel bonding update in OC

Which modem do you have?

Cisco DPC3010

I currently have the Motorola 6120. I have the Preferred (18/2) plan and max my downloads out at ~2.3MB/s
Is it worth upgrading to a newer modem that supports 8/4 bonding?

Just ran a speedtest and here are the results:

I've never used Moto, so I can't really compare. It's really going to depend on how congested your node is. Right now, your speed test results are pretty good, considering your plan. If you notice slowdowns in the evening or weekends, an 8x4 modem (DPC3010) may help as you'll have more channels to use. If speeds are fine overall, you probably won't see any improvement with a new modem.

Get the Cisco DPC3010 from Amazon for $40 used. It works like a charm on Cox.

My DPC3010 has always been a POS, while my SB6120 has been a champ.
