Comcast WiFi Gateway

Thanks cfortune and trlcavscout.
So based on this: it would be worth 2x the cost to go with the SB6183 (16x4) over the SB6141 (8x4)?

ETA: My bill just says "High Speed Internet", not any of the service tiers listed on the device chart. I don't game, but we do stream movies.

heres the thing, speeds will be doubling soon and the way technology goes that 8x4 will be outdated and not capable of the speeds in a couple years. The 16x4 will be a longer term investment. Their is already work on the 4th upstream and they have moved the QAM's so my guess 10-12 down streams are not that far out and then 16 will follow. The speeds we will have in a couple years even on the affordable residential side are a far cry from what we have today. I have seen a glimpse into the near future. They replaced the 8x4 modems with more expensive dual band 16x4's after only useing the 8x4's for what a year or maybe 2? So that right their means their is something in the wind

Thats an older docsis 2 modem. They are being phased out. It may work for 5 more years, might be 5 months. Youll know when you go to buy something from the trading post and you get the walled garden page.

If blast isnt listed on your bill, you're probably in the 25mbps tier. (performance)

Nothing honestly. Docsis 3 has quite a bit of headroom and Denver isn't one of the typical test markets. Comcast just went through upgrading their modems, so I dont forsee anything soon other than maybe a 25mbps bump somewhere down the road.

look at the speed capabilities of the dpc 3939 and 3941

That being said I live in the sticks, I am a knuckle dragging DSL guy haha 8 down and 768 up
