Cable modem upgrade
we got an email saying we needed to upgrade our cable modem. While our internet has been slow, all diagnostics show no problem. We currently have NETGEAR C7100V and they are recommending Netgear CM2050V.
Advice?? I can't get anyone at XFINITY to answer a phone... I don't want the assistant

@loisaf51 It would depend on the service plan you're currently subscribed to. From what I am finding in my research, the C7100V modem only supports speeds up to 400 Mbps. Only two plans are supported within that specification, our Connect and Connect More plans, currently at 150 Mbps and 300 Mbps, respectively. If you're on a plan that is faster than 400 Mbps, you're paying for something your equipment is not allowing you to achieve. It is our responsibility to make you aware of that equipment issue and not meant to upsell you or force you to change.
