[QUOTE="Digerati, post: 651339, member: 59833"] Note that Arris bought the Motorola Home division of Motorola Mobility from Google about 4 years ago. So basically, Motorola and Arris modems are the same (even using same model numbers). I generally look for Arris because if branded Motorola, it often means it has been sitting on the shelf for a long time.That said, this does not suggest a problem as these devices support on-line firmware updates. And I prefer my modem to be a separate device. For that reason, I go with Arris separate modem and not the integrated "residential gateway" devices (router, wireless access point, 4-port Ethernet switch, and modem in one box) so often provided by ISPs. Then I like Netgear "wireless routers". [/QUOTE]
