Each cable ISP has a list of modems that it accepts, but the
list is usually quite long, and the Motorola SB1xx modems
seem to be on all of them - probably because ithey're
DOCSIS 2.0 compliant and they're trouble-free (mine has
been working fine for 9 months, so far). They stand
vertically, and the convection cooling is adequate to keep
them relatively cool - contributing to longlife.
