Summary: Set up easily.
Review: It was so easy to call my cable provider with the modem info, then when they changed their info, to just switch this with the old (previously free) modem I started being charged [monthly for].

No problems at all!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Ultra Fast Modem!
Review: This modem is at a good price from Amazon.com I currently use this modem with my Optimum Online connection and I love this modem. This modem is very easy to use. Just plug a ethernet/usb cable into your computer and your ready to go!

Summary: Lookin' good!
Review: I bought this cable modem so I could save on the rental fees from Cox (San Diego). I was renting an older Toshiba model that I had no complaints with. When I connected my new Motorola this morning (after contacting Cox with the Mac Address and serial # of the new modem), I tested out the bandwidth. Wow, I got a download at a faster speed than I have ever seen with the Toshiba modem. It looks like this modem is going to work out great for me. The reason I decided on this model instead of a newer Toshiba model was the price. This modem was cheaper. It looks like I made the right decision.

Summary: As Advertised
Review: The SB5100 advertised simple set-up, ease of operation, and reliability. Motorola has hit a home run. I am not a technically oriented individual, but right out of the box, set-up was simple, and surfing was re-activated in less than 10 minutes. A simple phone call to my Cable provider, coax install, network CatV cable install, and power on. VOILA!! Highly Recommended.

Summary: fantastic
Review: I bought this modem to replace the one I was renting, all I can say is, easy, easy set up, and it works great.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Smaller & Sleeker
Review: This little modem replaced our Motorola SB4100. It's better looking and takes up less space, at about the size of a portable CD player. This model uses new technology (A-TDMA & S-CDMA) that triples the upstream capacity to 30Mbps. It is also DOCSIS 1.1 & 1.0 compatible and will work with older technology. I've been using this modem with Adelphia PowerLink with great results. And, if for no other reason, it's worth getting to save the five dollar monthly rental fee. Pays for itself really.

Summary: 10 minutes to install and no more rental fees.

Summary: Rock solid, flawless performance.
Review: This is a great cable modem at a VERY good price... The install was as simple as hooking up the Ethernet cable, the coax and power then calling my ISP to have the modem provisioned. The connection has been rock solid since and the preformance flawless since install. The design is nice with a small footprint and the "standby" button is a nice feature if your concerned about hackers or other outside intrusion. With DOCSIS 2.0 (and backward compatibility) built in, this modem is ready for any future upgrades by my ISP. I highly recommend purchasing this modem if your in the market for one.

Review: ...my opinon...its alot better then SB4200. its soo much smaller, and so much easier to install, and less bugs/hassels. the only reason i bought this is because i needed 1 more modem (1 for my x-box (the SB4200) and the new one for my pc). and this one is AWESOME. i think u should try it urself. u'll love it
