Still in use. Works. No Issues. Don’t have capability (or money) for higher performance. Arris – Motorola – Good name(s) – Arris, so far, so good. Hopefully they won’t compromise on design quality. They “were” the radio experts. Have installed a lot of Motorola transceivers in my day. They are REALLY good on the RF side.Note: This unit has a specific design spec operating limits (bandwidth/speed). Define and verify what you need and qualify your selection BEFORE you buy!

Still going after 4 years.

Having my own cable modem saves me $10/month that the cable company would charge to rent theirs.
Vintage Old Spice Lover Customer –
Has always been very reliable! I bought it to replace an older DOCSIS 2.0 modem that was obsolete when Suddenlink “provided” it to me (to get rid of their remaining old inventory). I didn’t know why I was having connectivity and speed issues, and Suddenlink was no help. I started digging. That’s when I realized I had been given an under-performing modem to begin with. Out of my own pocket, I bought this one, and tossed the bad one that Suddenlink “provided.” I have had good and dependable performance in the few years since. I am happy with this purchase.

I bought this modem SB6141 on May 2013 for $68, it was well worth it as it’s still functioning as of today (Feb 2018). Unfortunately it’s starting to have a few hiccups but I’m very pleased it lasted this long of continuous everyday usage. This is the modem I relied on to beat an MMORPG (Allods Online), go legend in Hearthstone, spent years in FPS games (Warframe/TF2/OW/CSGO/BF/etc), and get most of my undergrad assignments/research done. Heck it outlasted two routers & my ISP (Time Warner which merged into Spectrum).My biggest complaint is that the power cord can be knocked loose very easily due to a weak power slot (literally wiggling it would cause it to shut down) but that isn’t a problem if you keep your cord out of the way & the modem out of sight.It’s had no problem for years but unfortunately a few weeks ago it developed a small problem: it has trouble “letting go” of the last IP it’s connected to (my router) so if the router has issues then I have to shut it on and off several times until it accepts the new device. Still, I’ll run this little guy until it dies. d(‘-‘)
