If you have a bad signal coming in this modem will not help. Keep calling your cable guy to fix your signal.

I did not realise that my cable modem was the reason I was never getting over 6 mbps. I on a gamble went ahead and bought this DOCSIS 3.0 modem and now i am surfing at 26 mbps. The installation was a breeze, getting it activated a whole different experience. But it seems stable.
Did not work

Did not work right out of the box. Time Warner even tried to get it to work but no luck. Had to return and rent another one from the cable guy.
Performing as expected
