I regularly find DOCSIS 3.0 modems like the Motorola Surfboard at Thrift stores for around $5. On Sun, Jun 07, 2020 at 01:19:28PM -0600, Anthony J. Bentley wrote:
Hi Mark,

techies in Santa Fe: considering switching from uswest/qwest/centurylink (which will not do good speeds downtown) to xfinity/comcast (which says they will). i'll try it for a month. any advice on what cable modem hardware to get? any other things to consider for downtown santa fe broadband?
In Albuquerque, I use a Motorola SB6141. I bought it because it has one cable jack and one ethernet port; I wanted to use my own wireless router. It only supports about 300 Mbps max (my own service isn't anywhere close to that); if you want something faster and don't mind bringing your own router, one of the bigger models like SB6190 or SB8200 is the first direction I'd look.
