Time Warner Cable modems

[aircooled]

They gave me a SB4100 and I need it replaced (I'm having to reboot it regularly).
Is there a better modem to use with Time Warner?

TW just installed my cable about a month ago and gave me a brand new Ambit U10C018. It's pretty tiny compared to my old cable modem.

It's worked fine for the last year, they are bringing me a new one this afternoon. I had to replace my previous one about a year ago also.

Mine seem to have a 1 year lifespan 🙂

SB5120 here, just about everyone around here who uses TW has this modem AFAIK.

Pick up an SB5120 at Wal-Mart for $60 and stop paying the lease fees. It's a kickass modem.

Ooh, nice. I wish Time Warner was in my area. Crappy Charter is my only option.

so if he has several models on the truck, what is the best to choose?

SB 5100 here. The 4000 series is old, I'm amazed they still use them places. We had one originally, but that was back in 2000. When it died, they gave us the 5100.

Sweet. Called earlier today, they came out this afternoon and replaced my SB4100 with a SB5101. Also replaced the filter on the street.
