- why replace modem with docsis 2.0?
- Posted by trs80 on April 19th, 2007
My cable company sent me a new modem. They say for free but Ill beleive it
when I see no charges on the monthly bill. Is a Motorola 5100 and I use a
Motorola 4100 right now. Why should I replace the 4100? Will the 5100 give
the cable company more visibility into my home LAN to be able to charge me
for the multiple PCs I have running?

You may find you get higher throughput. If you have a router between
your LAN pcs and the cable modem they would not be able to see past
your router.
Now if you have a hub, then only one pc could connect to the internet
untill you buy more connections.

If your that paranoid about it then refuse it and keep your older modem.
