Cisco Model DPC3010 DOCSIS 3.0 8×4

I had been quietly despairing for some time about occasional service dropouts with Cox’s Premier service tier. I’ve generally been happy with them for the past 10 years, even though they oversubscribe the heck out of my SoCal neighborhood. But, for the last 8 months my home’s internet connection would “go away” between 10:30AM and 1:30PM for no obvious reason. Digital TV and VoIP service were not impacted. I figured it was a maintenance reset at the head end or some such thing. Then it started happening more frequently at any and all hours, and even though I’d sometimes call in a trouble ticket to Cox, the problem would clear itself after 15-30 minutes with no trouble found.Finally I decided to swap out the old Ambit DOCSIS 2.0 modem for a new modem, even though I wasn’t upgrading my service. This was the first time I had to buy a cable modem as all previous units were provided at no charge by Cox. So I griped a bit when I went into the Cox retail store and they told me that a) my problems would likely go away by upgrading to a DOCSIS 3.0 modem, and b) they’d be happy to sell me a DPC3010 for $79. A quick check online showed that Cox’s price was decent, and that it would be immediately provisioned and ready to plug in by the time I drove home.And indeed it was painless, plugging and playing without my having to call Cox service to register or authenticate the device. Not only is the DPC3010 providing 100% uptime, the upgrade to DOCSIS 3.0 hardware gives me a 3MB-5MB improvement in download speeds when compared with the old Ambit modem. And, the GigE interface to my Apple TimeCapsule router also seems to provide improved network speeds on both wired Ethernet and 802.11n wireless connections throughout my home. With 4+ months of use, I’m glad I made the purchase.This product has exceeded my expectations in every way. My speed has more than doubled from its first use. Easy working with Mediacom for the installation and the company I purchased it from was a delight to work with also.I got this so I wouldn’t have to pay Comcast monthly rental fees to use one of their modems. It works great, and was quick and easy to set up with just a quick call to Comcast technical …
