Motorola SURFboard SBG900 Cable Modem (49402201900)

A Quick Review of the Motorola "Surfboard SBG900" cable/wi-fi modem.

I would have to say this is the best experience i have had with a modem. Very easy to setup, just plug it in and access settings at "http://192.168.100.1"


Pro's

Wi-Fi range is great.
Quick and easy to setup, even without manual.
Lots of security and firewall options built-in.

Con's

Advanced menus can be a bit overwhelming.


9 out of 10 stars.

I have comcast cable internet and this modem has worked flawlessly. In terms of setup for the modem I simply plugged it in and it was ready to go. Comcast has a list of approved modems for their internet, if you dont have comcast you might want to make sure this modem is supported. Otherwise I would strongly recommend it.

Love it! For some reason I've always had trouble with connecting a seperate wireless router to my old Motorola Surfboard Cable Modem. I've tried 2 different wireless routers (Linksys and D-Link) but they would frequently "lock up" or crash and I would loose wireless service. No more worries now. If my Motorola SBG900 Cable Modem with the Built-In Wireless Router is working, the wireless is up and running... period. Works flawlessly, even after power outages. No more IP problems. My VOIP phone works great now too as long as the SBG900's built-in firewall is turned off.

I'm a Senior Network Administrator and am entirely satisfied with this wireless modem. I would recommend this wireless modem without any hesitation.

Very quick shipping. The modem worked upon connection. No problems so far. Needed a router for home. This modem was recommended by my cable company and co-worker. My co-worker has purchased items from Ebay in the past.

pros---easy setup, no vires,good signal,i dont like to pay rent fee,i own it.


cons--dont have right now

Brand new it a great modem using it now. other modem was about dead had several years on it. Do not have to use another router because its already built in to this modem saves space.

Had two months and had to replace!! Worst item bought so far. That's what I get for buying used. Wish would have bought new.

I bought it for the price, I asked a few question to the seller and he answer
very good. So is a Motorola modem that has an excellent reputation I decide to buy it. Ok,

Teriffic wireless broadband cable modem! Very good range. The web-based interface is clear and easy to master.

The only two wireless modems are this one and the Linksys, which I owned previously. The Linksys had a smaller range and would drop connection when attempting to download files greater than 100K, requiring the modem to have power recycled. Linksys customer support is non-existent. The Motorola product is better quality, range, and I can wirelessly download media files (ex. Hulu) with no problems. Installation was plug and play. Connection to Cox was easy, as the system configured itself. The only con you could find to the Linksys is the Motorola has only one ethernet connection in the rear; the Linksys had four.

This product works very well. We have it installed in our home and are able to use our laptop wirelessly even if we are outside oln the back deck. Not paying Comcast $7 extra doesn't hurt anything either. Very easy to install and is very stable and dependable.

This is a great product that allows you to eliminate extra hardware in your setup. Instead of buying both a modem and a wireless router, you get both pieces of hardware in one streamlined unit. Saves space and complication. I would highly recommend one.

don't have AC adapter,I can't use.I want change verizon to comcast.
such a rubbish.such a rubbish.such a rubbish.such a rubbish.such a rubbish.
such a garbage.such a garbage.such a garbage.such a garbage.such a garbage.

Excellent product, excellent seller. The Modem works like a gem and I am very happy with it as well as this superb ebayer.

This was an excellent modem and a modest price. Fast delivery and exactly as described. Professional people.

Everything is good except for it having just 1 slot of for an ethernet cable
