I want to try my own modem instead of renting through mediacom.. I'm not tech savvy at all, though I understand a little bit. I have a basic high speed package from mediacom. I see some of the Motorola's on their approved list (such as the sb6121) are not even listed on their site(Motorola website). I also see they're going for 30-50 bucks online, which is an attractive price point. Would I be wasting my time buying one of these? What newer modems (ones that arent discontinued or still have some support) go for fairly cheap in price? I figure if I have to spend say 175 bucks it's not worth it to me, as if my current modem fails mediacom will replace it no problem, however if my own fails I have to replace it, which is why I want cheap as possible.
Any help for a guy who doesn't know a whole lot? Haha
