Best modem? MB8611 or the Arris Sb8200
I currently have the arris and it works just fine. Curious if it is still a good option for the gigabit service? Will be using the modem in a second location so I can use the same one I currently have.
thanks

Thanks. I heard lots of complaints about over heating on the sb8200 but mine never did. Same with the new s33. Others have said the Motorola's have better venting.
but all true the same specs... never had an issue with the sb8200 but I don't have the gigabit plan either.
thx
