Summary: Good Modem goes offline without Notice
Comment: I've had the modem for about one month. So far it runs good and install was very easy. Three times now the modem just went offline and was diffcult to reset ended up having to un plug the modem to reset it. I give it 3.5/5 stars so far will see how long it lasts.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Always with problems
Comment: It always drops connections and has conflict with my netgear router. I would not recommend getting this particular router.
Spend about $50 and get a decent motorola modem.

Summary: Returned Item

Summary: A great replacement for the comcast RENTAL modem
Comment: No more $3.00 a month rental fee for me.
After going through 4 "comcast rental" modems in less than a year
(3 motorola surfboards + a terayon) I have had it with
comcrap modems.
Sidenote: comcrap HSI cable modem:
It takes about 3-5 days on average to get back online after a modem dies.
[Comcrap wants to send a tech out to troubleshoot the line, but they want to do it from 1PM to 5PM, the same time that I am at work. It does not work out for me. I'm not taking time off work for someone to troubleshoot what I already KNOW is wrong; the modem.
In a best case scenario, I have to take off work early, to even get into town and just drop off the old modem and pickup a new one].
The RCA modem:
I contacted comcrap to give them my new MAC hardware adderss, for the RCA modem.
It took all of about 15 minutes; to have them enter my mac address into their system and to get me up and running.
I like the modem.
PROS:
1. The INTERNET ON/OFF button saves me from having to toggle my software firewall ON and OFF.
2. software setup is super simple. Device is seen by XP home edition and driver is installed without any problems.
3. The "DAN ELWELL Speed test" seems to be just as fast as my old motorola and/or terayon.
4. the PRICE was right. On 7-8-2006 Radioshack B&M had them for
$29 (regularly 79.99) but WAIT. The price rang up as only
$19.99, NOT the $29.99 on the stoer sign.
Totally Excellent deal.
I bought two. One to use and a spare.
5. Setup/install -one of the fastest and easiest devices to install.
CONS:
1. What happened to RCA's online registration and support?
Concerning these cable modems?
I had a hard time finding the online place to register.
2. Perhaps they (RCA) sold off their cable modem division; who knows.
Conclusion:
I like the modem better than either the motorola surfboard or terayon.
I am NOT an online gamer, so I cannot address that issue.
Nor conclude whether the RCA is better or worse for online gaming.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Great Modem
Comment: This is a great modem and the on/ off security button is great which you will not find on all modems.
Just search around online for it... found it new for $35 with shipping included instead of $65+ in Radio Shack.
