I have only seen a few good modems as of late from any cable provider. Are there people having the same issues with the newer Arris Cable Modem? I see the responses in the thread, will they issue static ip addresses with just modems/Arris? Really, they will not let you bring your own device with a compatable Arris modem? I hate the all in one devices that they give out. I had issues with one until I put it into bridge mode. It would not NAT correctly. At another location, I demanded a modem. I was paying for their fastest internet 100M down at the time and there was no way I was going to add all that overhead to the connection and depend on garbage firmware. _______________________________________________ pfSense mailing list https://lists.pfsense.org/mailman/listinfo/list Support the project with Gold! https://pfsense.org/gold
