Re: Cable Modem Question

My vote would be stick with what you have for now. Unless you are having problems that can be pinpointed to the modem. It wouldn't hurt anything to upgrade to the SB5100. But there is no use spending the money. Unless you know your experiencing a problem that is caused by your current modem.

That said I upgraded my old 3Com when Insight stated they were upgrading to the newer DOCSIS standard. My old modem would still work just fine I'm sure. But I wanted the newer technology.
