Re: Modem (SB5100) frequent disconnects - is it going bad?

said by hobgoblin:

You have a ten year old non approved modem.
Swap it.

Personally I would always take a Motorola modem over a Zoom.

Mind saying why from your pro level view? There are many more reports of connection stability issues out there with Moto Surfboards, although there are many more of them out there period, plus the ones I mentioned where someone stopped their problems after trading a SB for a Zoom.

I have way more experience over the last 14 years supporting Moto modems. Despite the threads about firmware and stability in here I believe the vast majority are signal related.
Sure you can find one or two threads where someone claims a XXXX modem solved the issue but without really troubleshooting I am skeptical.
