Cable Modem purchase

May 13, 2006 4 Replies

My old Motorola SB 4100 died a few days back. Does it really matter what brand/model of modem to buy? Walmart has the Motorola SB 5120 for around $54.00 OR I can buy a used WebStar from my cable co. for around $30.00. Is one any better?



Thanks Kevin


I'd go with the Motorola SB 5120 (or the SB 5100). Overall it gets the best reviews of any out there.

Before buying anything, you should check with your cable co. and see what they allow.

Thanks and I did. They will allow the Motorola SB5120 which my local Walmart sells.
