And unless you need/want the full broadband gateway (e.g., you're using it for wifi, or you're using cable phone service), you're better off getting a pure modem anyway.
If it's on your provider's acceptable device list, the Arris SB8200 is a DOCSIS 3.1-capable modem providing some degree of future-proofing. I use one myself for my backup Internet connection through Cox, which is in fact running 3.1 in this area. -----Original Message----- From: Hardware [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Christopher Fisk Sent: Sunday, July 15, 2018 9:15 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [H] Arris DG1670a Should get a list of devices that work with their stuff and buy new from amazon.
