I had a online chat and they said it max is 6.5MB and under my plan there
was no room to buffer for higher speeds. So I would beable to get 4200 or
better. I'm hopeing for the latest one though.

Got a new modem and I ge lower speeds. Is this because I have a 10/100 NIC?
Or is my not overloaded?

I had problems getting the higher speeds and modem would also "lose" the
connection repeatedly after the upgrade using the original SB3100 I got when
I signed up for the service. After repeated service calls, they finally
replaced the modem with a Motorola 5120. Now I get speeds of over 6100+ and
modem never loses the connection.

My suggestion is to call them and ask them to bring you a new modem. I was
also told you can go to your local office and swap your old modem for a new
one.

Good Luck.
