Another dead modem

Post by Bob Connor » Mon Oct 28, 2013 10:30 am

Just had another cable modem die on me.

Anyone got a rabbit's foot they can send me. I think I've had more isp outages in the last month than in the entire ten years I've been with this company.

Regards
Bob, Geelong

The Billion modem range have always been rock solid for me and many others Bob. Have a look at Warcom to see if any ring ur bell.

I agree. I changed to Billion after continually struggling with Westnet's BOB2. The Bob2 was changed twice, which makes it a BOB6?
No probs with Billion.

Billion here as well.

Had a few modems die over the years. The billion is the only one I've upgraded without it dying first, I only bought a new one for wifi
