Cable Modems/Routers

I am finally getting cable next week and I need to buy a cable modem and route, any suggestions?

I like my SMC barricade router!

Did you say BUY a modem? :huh:

In that case, I could recommend the Motorola Surfboard. I've had this new model for awhile now and haven't had any problems with it. I also hear good things about that Barricade router Halide mentioned. Btw, I would also recommend posting this in General Discussions or Tech. :p

Motorola surfboard also has a glitch where you can uncap the bandwith to it and get better speeds than your package offers.

link?

I dunno if that's true for the newer model though

if you plan on keeping cable interweb access for an extended period of time, it would be better if you rented from your cable company. I've gone through a couple modems, and if there's a problem with it, they replace it for free. Otherwise you will have to buy another modem.

thanks for the suggestion.

I'm pretty sure your provider will catch you if you uncap rather quickly.
