Dan, I am not assuming the reason for an upgrade is because the ISP is using DOCSIS. In the case of my neighbour switching ISPs and hacking the new modem, that was not the case. The original poster won't know unless he verifies with his ISP. He asked, I gave him options and a real case scenario of a modem being hacked. It's his choice if he's willing to take the risk. Never know till he tries.
