cm1000 or cm1000v2 verification before buying

Probably nothing you'll never notice or deal with. Best recommendation is to look at your ISPs supported modem list. Get either one from a store with a good return policy. Contact the ISP and have them assoicated with there service. If it doesn't work, then you can return the modem.
