4 out of 5 stars Brand Name-brand new-Great price   December 30, 2008
Joseph D. Anticoli (Scranton, PA USA)
The motorola SB5101 modem works great. Package was delivered in three days and came professionally packed with all required software, powerpack and cables.


5 out of 5 stars Excellent product, highly reliable   December 30, 2008
Greyhound Lady (Lancaster, PA)
I've been renting one of those modems from my cable company for over a year at $3 per month, and realized I could buy my own. Fortunately for me there was a rebate of $20, so it was worth buying one. It is the same model Comcast uses, and has been highly reliable for us for over a year now. I figured at $36 per year to rent it, I may as well own one, especially since the rebate put the price down to just under $30, and no shipping fee. It is easy to set up and just continues to work day in/day out. Since I work from home, this is very important to me! Also works well with the router and wireless systems on our computers (we have 4 on-line). Highly recommend.

This modem was received well packaged in reasonable time. It was easy to set up and has been working fine for about a month. It was a very good price from Amazon.con.


5 out of 5 stars Meets Expectations   December 22, 2008

I realize that Motorola and Comcast are pushing newer technology - for use as cable modems; but this one works fine. The price sure is right now.


4 out of 5 stars Surfin is EASY   December 21, 2008
Donald L. Giffin (Tacoma, WA. United States)
I finally realized I was dumping $$$ to Comcast every month renting their modem so I decided to purchase my own. This has been a very easy product to install and use. I especially like the feature that allows me to disconnect from the internet connection when I am not using my computer. It was far less expensive buying from amazon.com than several electronics online retailers. I highly recommend this modem if you are looking for ease of installation, reliability and good value for your $$$ Motorola Surfboard SB5101 Cable Modem
