replacement modem

Currently using a voyager 210 wired modem. If it ceases to work should I just replace it with the same model or would there be any advantage in using any other type of (wired) Modem ? And if so what make of modem (and why) ?

My personal opinion is that the 210's just as good as any other.

Re: replacement modem

ive bein using 210 for a few months now and have had no probs at all. runing a mac on usb and windows on ethernet.
only thing i can think of is the amount of heat it gives off but this is my first adsl router. do all routers give of a far amount of heat?

Re: replacement modem

I believe most routers run warm to the touch though the Voyager 210 is one of the warmest. This is normal, nothing to worry about even if permanently left on.
The main thing is to ensure any router has adequate ventilation, and don't stand anything on it - especially paperwork.
