MODEM SELECTION

NETGEAR CM600 or ARRIS SURFboard white SB6190 Modem?.

 

To add to what I said above, the SB6190 uses the broken Intel chipset which literally makes you lag. So do not buy that.

 

The CM600 uses an okay Broadcom chip, but for some reason when testing I always felt like I was slightly behind in comparison to my old modem.

 

Which is the one I recommend, the TP-Link TC-7610

It's actually one of the modems that they recommend for people who want to purchase their own modem.

 

It's what I use and I'm with Spectrum loony.

It's just my opinion looney, if you didn't have any issues with the Arris then that's great.I just know that a lot of people did and still do.It's really hard to beat the TP Link TC - 7610 for the price and more importantly the functionality of it, lots of people shy away from it IMO due to it's low price, they think it's not solid because it doesn't cost 150 plus dollars.

 

I wouldn't buy anything with the Puma Intel Chipset as it's been documented to have issues that you don't want if you're gaming, hell even if your not.If it were me I would send the Arris back and pick up the TP Link TC - 7610 on Amazon,they are really priced well and I know for a fact in my setup makes a huge difference in the spikes and stability on my Spectrum line.

 

I'm not in anyway telling you what to do looney, we've known each other for awhile now.I still remember you hosting the lag comp testing FFA games.I'm just simply giving you my opinions on question you asked.

 

Best of luck in what ever you decide... :D
