Customer Reviews:

Comcast does not allow you to use it with Digital voice [Posted on 2007-10-08]
I purchased one of these modems and Comcast would not allow me to use it with their digital voice service. I filed a complaint with the better business bureau, but again was told by the vice president of the digital voice division that it cannot be used even though they installed the same modem for me to use their service.

Comcast is working with Motorola to come out with self install kits so you cannot use your own EMTA unit until that process is completed.

Free from Cox [Posted on 2007-12-02]
I've had this modem for about a month now. It's just as good as the other Motorola modem (SB5101) I bought earlier this year from Walmart which was less than $60. The biggest difference is this one is almost twice the size as the SB5101 because of its battery backup and its a lot heavier too. Anyway I moved and got a package deal from Cox that included tv, internet and phone service so they threw in this modem as part of the deal. Of course I don't get to keep if I end my service but who cares? Great product and a great deal from Cox.
