 Works but poorly supported on comcast, 2007-10-25
It turn out I didn't need to buy this device. The cable connection to my entire neighborhood was messed up. It took Comcast months to figure it out. I think maybe the hint was when there were 3 comcast repair vans simultaneously responding to different service calls in my ~40 house cul de sac.
Regardless, the modem works perfectly well. Obviously, my internet connection is better now but I can't tell if it is the fixed cable service or the modem.
Regardless, I wish I'd gone with qwest DSL instead of buying this cable modem. Comcast customer support is very spotty and some of them just force you to go through a mindless checklist and then blame the cable modem because they can't connect to it. They do this even when you tell them that you can read the signal levels from the modem diagnostic page.
noot bad, 2007-10-06
It created some problems first but i realised they were because of comcast not because of linksys. Overhoul good product but i have nothing to compare with. (this is my first cable modem:) I have been using it for 2 months and so far it works with its brother wireless router WRT54G perfectly. It might be cheaper.

 Fast, but there are more stable alternatives, 2007-10-03
I replaced my old Motorola modem with this one, hoping for an increase in speed. I got what I wanted: my speed almost doubled (the old modem had started to degrade, so I'm not claiming that it is going to double everyone's speed). I also noticed that I had to start performing resets a lot more often. After some research into the matter, I found that this model has a lot of trouble staying connected while under maximum load. I went to the website to see if there were any firmware upgrades available, but Linksys only provides updates to ISPs, and DOES NOT allow users to upgrade the product that THEY HAVE PAID FOR. After finding that out, I decided to replace my Linksys, because I use every last bit of my bandwidth, and I don't want to be resetting the modem 3 times a day (which is about how often I was having to do it). If you need a faster modem, try D-Link's DCM-202 modem. It's $20 cheaper than Linksys, provides faster speeds, and posts all its firmware updates online.
Outstanding product and service from Amazon!, 2007-09-26
It was so easy to shop through Amazon! I found exactly what I wanted and they had the best price. Shipping was prompt and I am now enjoying my Linksys Cable Modem!
 Hardware Version 4 will not work with Comcast in Colorado, 2007-09-24
If you live in Colorado, don't buy this product. The latest version (4) will not work with Comcast in Colorado. Version 3 will work, but unfortunately, you can't find out the version number until you look at the bottom of the modem. Linksys should at least print the version number on the outside of the box. I had to return this modem and purchase a ZOOM 5241. It works perfectly (and its cheaper)!
