cm500 or cm600
i want to know if CM500-100NAS just as stable as the cm600 Would this work on charter has anyone had prob with it?
CM500 = 16x4 bonding
CM600 =24x8 bonding
both should work on Spectrum/charter.
What one you would pick and what be good for 60 Mbps 5 upload?Would make my speed go up?
for that 60/5, CM500 is good enough (unless you plan to upgrade to 200 or 300 Mbps service in future).
If you plan to stay with 60/5 service, just spend less $ on CM500 and no need for CM600 as CM600 is bit more expensive than CM500.
Would my speed go over 60 Mbps?
who is the ISP?
In most cases it would be -/+ 5 to 10% of the committed rate (60Mbps) and depending on congestion in your area/node and peak/off-peak hours.
typically COMCAST DOCSIS config files are slightly over provisioned. for 60 Mbps, they might provision it 65 Mbps. Other ISPs, not sure about it.
Charter I get sometime about 67 Mbps on my old modem.
