Will this modem work with Cox Communications internet service? They told me to get a Docsis 3 modem to replace the Cisco DPQ 3212 rental modem.

Yes, it should. The internet uses a standard TCP-IP protocol. My internet is Comcast so I can't be100% sure. Linksys support should be consulted to be sure. On the other hand Amazon will take the modem back if it doesn't work.

I can't say for sure. I checked Cox's site, and they list only a handful of devices, and DON'T list this particular one (Linksys DPC 3008-C) I bought, as an approved replacement (although, that doesn't mean it won't work!). Many cable (ISP) providers want you to either rent or purchase your equipment from them, so rarely do they include models that they DON'T sell themselves. My apologies for not having a more definitive answer, but I have Comcast....an entirely different animal altogether. As much as I hate to say it, you may have to call their tech services dept., wait on hold for an hour or two, before you can actually get an accurate answer.

Actually, this model is supposedly specific to Comcast, hence the -CC in the model. Newegg's description is little bit more clear.

NO.. Actually I sent this modem back. I did replace it, however, with a "TELEPHONY" modem that is just like the one I was renting from Comcast. I didn't realize my error in reviewing this item until after I hit ENTER. sorry

my cox internet and my phone work great with this modem but if you are in doubt I would call comcast to see if there would be any conflict with their connection.

It worked for my Atlantic Broadband. Call Time Warner Customer Service and they will tell you what you need to know to replace their supplied modem that you rent or are offered to purchase for a larger sum of money than you will pay for a used or refurbished one!

It WORKS with Comcast. I just ordered the second one to skip the riddiculous $8 Modem rental (Lost the first one due to a power surge few days ago (Idiocy will always prevail...USE a power surge protector). I start by connecting the cables to the modem then the ethernet cable to my laptop and lastly plug the modem to the power outlet. Open up your browser, go to xfinity.com, loggin to your account and it will self detect and self install your new modem. the last step which will be updating the hardware (it takes forever and franckly I don't know if it does update). I just open a new tab/window, browse thru multiple websites to test the internet. Unplug the power cord to the modem, plug the ethernet cable to your wifi router, plug in both modems and everything should work.

not all cable modems are 2way there exist 1way cable modems that use upload on a phone line and download on a coax cable and similar systems. this is an older technology, and not all cable modems that are DOCSIS 3.0 do DOCSIS 3.0 two way. some do DOCSIS 3.0 down and 2.0 up and vise versa. this modem listed is 2way and my comment was to just be a little more accurate on the other facts.
157210
Yes, absolutely.. although you should probably disable the Comcast wireless feature and hard-wire the modem to the router for best throughput. You might want to consider returning it to Comcast, though, and just invest in a new cable modem that's optimized for the AC features (DOCSIS 3.0).. unless the Comcast modem is already DOCSIS 3.0 capable. Note that DOCSIS 3.1 is due out in 2014, but I doubt you would want to wait that long.

I use the modem with Cox and do not know if it is compatible with Time Warner. Best bet is to contact Time Warner directly.
113840
I don't know. I was told to got onto Time Warner's website and look up the list of compatible modems. While I was doing that, I also checked my current modem (from TW) and was able to buy the same model. I suggest you check Cox website and see if they have a compatible list. Good Luck

I am a customer of Cox in the Phoenix Metro area and I use this Cisco DPC3010. If you go to this Cox page, you will find it is one of the ones listed as supported. http://ww2.cox.com/residential/support/internet/article.cox?articleId=b2ec95d0-7ef9-11df-5590-000000000000

You should be able to go on Comcast's website and imput what type of internet package you have and they list all the modems that are compatible....that's how I came across this modem....there's many choices ..

I do not know about Comcast - I have Time Warner Cable and the Cisco modem works but TWC does not list it on their compatibility list. Also TWC only allows me to use the Cisco modem internet port and will not support the modem telephone port. I use the TWC modem for the telephone port so I use two modems. TWC does not charge me for the their cable modem because I only use it for the telephone.

If you call them they will happily tell you which modems you can purchase that are compatible with their system. Also, be careful if you buy a second hand modem online, they are often equipment that belongs to the cable company (Comcast, Cox, Time Warner) but were never returned (by deadbeat customer who left unpaid bills and pawned the equipment), they have a record of those serial numbers and they cannot be used for another account.

Yes indeed, it worked for me. That's all you need. No more rental fee..... But I would highly recommend for you to get in contact with your local cable company before purchasing this modem.... Just to be on the safe side. Mine has been working for over 2 yrs and the installation took only a few mins over the phone with the cable co. Good Luck.

They were probably telling you that you need a two-channel modem. Bonding of channels multiplies your speed by the number of channels, and it's a core feature of DOCSIS 3 as compared to DOCSIS 2, which only has a single channel at a time. That doesn't answer the question of which channels are supported, though. Not all modems/ISPs support the same set of channels, and you have to support a channel to bond it. I recommend that you ask your ISP specifically if this modem is supported.

i have charter cable and it works for me. you might want a docsis 3.0 because they are phasing out docsis 2.0. hope i helped.
1487413
Yes this works fine with Comcast and Charter (or any cable internet company), but you can't use it with their telephone service (so if you sign up for internet and telephone you have to get a different model). This device is an all in one with included WiFi, which makes it a great small device that covers all your bases. It isn't DOCSIS 3.0, but that doesn't matter since Comcast speeds don't even reach the capacity of DOCSIS 2.0
