| Motorola Rebate is a Scam | |
|  | I purchased this modem from Amazon because Motorola is currently offering a mail-in rebate through selected retailers. After I submitted the rebate form, Motorola decline the rebate saying "The UPC symbol or proof-of-purchase tab you submitted is not valid for this promotion". I ordered the exact model number specified on the rebate form. How was I supposed to know what UPC code Amazon was going to ship me?
Here is the quote from the rebate form - "This offer is valid only on the purchase of a Motorola SURFboard® Model SB5101 between January 1, 2008 and December 31, 2008, purchased at Fry's Electronics, CompUSA, Office Depot, Radio Shack or Amazon.com."
| |  | Easy to set up, very good price. So far, it proved to be very reliable.
| |  | I bought this modem for my cable internet service. It's very easy to setup, connect to a router, and broadcast the service wirelessly if you choose to. I've had no downtime with this router and would recommend it to anyone who needs a modem for new cable service.
| |  | I don't really have much to add to the pre-existing reviews, but it's a great machine. It saves me $3per month from modem rental through Comcast. I figured that after 12 months of rental, I would've spent almost as much towards the purchase of my own modem.
| |  | This is a excellent product had bought it as a replacement for dlink dcm202. This is a way better product.
