While officially (still?) not supported this modem seems to work with Mediacom 1Gbit service. I wanted to try it out and it seems to be stable, barely gets warm, provisioning took 2 min. Pages load just fine, speeds are as expected and I'm not seeing any jitter or latency issues. I like the modem GUI and the idea of showing info about config file down and up speeds. It came with 8600-6.1.1.13 firmware. The only issue so far is unusually slow modem internal pages. I'm talking 5-7 seconds to load any page, even spectrum analyzer only refreshes every 7 seconds or so. Otherwise normal usage, browsing, streaming, downloads on Steam had no issues at all. Not sure if this is just this unit or a common issue with these modems.
