They claim my Motorola Surfboard 6141 is not compatible anymore.


This says otherwise.

And you think Comcast wouldn't lie to you, just to get you off the phone?
Confusedmiley-laughing001:
They told me that my old Motorola SB5100 waS OBSOLETE and that I should upgrade to a DOCIS 3.0 modem for better FASTER speed and better reliability and that I was slowing down the network????

I went to best buy and bought a 6141 for about $65 to avoid paying the $8 per month comcast rental fee.

I tried for 4 months to get that problematic modem to work - hard wired, with & without my time capsule, with & without my airport express, with & without my router - it work beautifully for a couple days and then connection issues - wouldn't work at all or I would get dial up speed or less

I EVEN PUT THEIR TEIR TWO TECH SUPPORT ON SPEED DIAL to avoid talking to the scripted idiots from India.

They think it is a wiring problem inside or near the house but my internet (and TV) worked 98% OF THE TIME WITH THE OLD MODEM???

One day - I finally decide to hook my old modem - works about 95% of the time but sometimes I need to restart my Airport express.
