LOUD--NINJA Posted December 26, 2015 Posted December 26, 2015 Wondering if you guys could answer this question. Between the Arris SB6141, SB6183 & SB6190. Which one of these modems would be best for the NetDuma? Thanks.
willthetech Posted December 26, 2015 Posted December 26, 2015 I have the SB6141 and it works great. no issues at all.
PharmDawgg Posted December 26, 2015 Posted December 26, 2015 I can't tell you which one to get but I can tell you which one not to get. SB6183. Search the forums and you will see there is a bug with that modem and the R1.
LOUD--NINJA Posted December 26, 2015 Author Posted December 26, 2015 I have the SB6141 and it works great. no issues at all. What is your Ping? Would you have game play I can see? Thanks.
LOUD--NINJA Posted December 26, 2015 Author Posted December 26, 2015 I can't tell you which one to get but I can tell you which one not to get. SB6183. Search the forums and you will see there is a bug with that modem and the R1. Thank you Buck. Yes I see the issues the SB6183 has. I'm wondering if the SB6190 will have same issues. It just came out in Oct this year.
PharmDawgg Posted December 26, 2015 Posted December 26, 2015 I would check to see if they have the same chipset. If so I would avoid the SB6190. Just my opinion.

willthetech Posted December 26, 2015 Posted December 26, 2015 What is your Ping? Would you have game play I can see? Thanks. Well my ping is 30.... LOL about the gameplay...i am not a good player anyway but here is some.
LOUD--NINJA Posted December 26, 2015 Author Posted December 26, 2015 Well my ping is 30.... LOL about the gameplay...i am not a good player anyway but here is some. That's good gameplay there. Great hit detection. 2-3 bullets for the kill. I think only 2 kills needed 4 bullets. Almost like you were playing Hardcore. Wish my connection was like that. It still takes me around 4-6 bullets to kill and by then I'm dead LOL. My Ping is 23 and a steady connection but still need more bullets then I should need. Who's your ISP? I have DSL, Wondering if I should switch to Cable, get the SB6141? Maybe that would help Hit Detection. Thanks willthetech
Administrators Netduma Iain Posted December 26, 2015 Administrators Posted December 26, 2015 Hi mate, A modem can't make your ping lower. Only the ISP & a router can. The Netduma will eliminate the two main causes of large ping 1) congestion 2) distance. These are two factors you are not often aware of but are key to gaming ping. I guess you're talking about speedtest ping. That is not very relevant to gaming but that is completely down to the ISP. So when it comes to picking a modem I'd suggest picking any other than the buggy ones Happy Holidays
Special_Ed Posted December 26, 2015 Posted December 26, 2015 I sold my 6183 because of the bugs and got the netgear cm-500. Works great.
Alex49H Posted December 29, 2015 Posted December 29, 2015 I just got the Arris SB6190 but need to sell the SB6183. The 6190 works great.
