Hey tech-like folks! If you had to buy one of these cable modems in the next week or so, which would you pick and why?
Netgear CM500(16x4), CM600(24x8), or CM1000 (docis3.1) Mostly trying to guage future-proofing vs cost as a CM500 will have plenty of throughput for us on Comcast. I would think docis3.1 devices will come down to sub $100 by the time I'd get any benefit out of it anyway? Yes, a car forum is a strange place for this, but it's not really a life changing decision lol. |

Nah. Nothing wrong with early service. Catch stuff before it has a chance to go really sideways.

Another theory I had was maybe the pin thing (I can't recall the name) might just be prematurely contacting the rotor or other piece it lands on after a while. Feel free to correct me.

Yep, we didn't have PM back in my civilian day. Why? Because we couldn't afford it. We could barely afford getting another piece, out of a junk yard, when something broke - humfrz |

There's no such thing as a forever device, and it'll cost half that in a few years if it isn't obsolete... Considering I'm not necessarily in my forever house, and might not even have a broadband connection in my next, is it worth it? Even so, a device that will last me x years is a half (cm600) or a third (cm500) of that price. Is x enough time to bring down the price? Will I go to some other distribution of internet's in x time? Aaaarrrghhhhh! |

So, I'm forgetting something, but that's the reason I'm not doing my own work anymore. Today, I would drop the car off at my local shop and tell them to fix my squeaking brakes. They would run me home, in my car, and we would discuss the situation as they were squeaking. I would then take a nap, wait for their call and they would come pick me up when the car was fixed. I would pay them and everything would be all better. PS - I'll pass on the invite to correct you - I know I'm retired, but I still don't have THAT much free time - humfrz |

Had a good evening. Went to my middle son's place in Vacaville for dinner and met his girlfriend for the first time. 28 and first "girlfriend". Nice gal. It was very nice.
