So I decided to purchase a new cable modem! I've had the same one for quite a while, and have read reviews and feedback of people getting substantially faster speeds than their plans advertise as a result of utilizing DOCSIS 3.0. Being as I tend to like acquiring the 'latest and greatest' in technology (well, if it provides a significant upgrade), I decided to make the purchase.
At any rate, sometime after I get home from work today I will be switching out the cable modems. It involves calling my ISP so the new one can communicate on the network, so expect downtime of up to an hour (though I imagine it shouldn't take that long).
This will probably happen sometime in the evening, perhaps a few hours after I get home (I'm scheduled off at 6:30p). I'll post again once I'm about to start the process.
