Help!
I bought a Netgear c3000 modem and tried to connect it to my Cox internet service. The modem box says speeds up to 340 but Cox is saying it cannot handle the speed I have signed up for (300).
Is the box just wrong? What do I do? If I have to return the modem I want to do it quickly and get a different one. I’m not going to spend 10 dollars every month renting one when I could just by it outright for less in the long run.

It may not handle that speed it may do with how many downstream channels the ISP needs on a unit to provide that kind of speed.

300 Mbps needs at least 16x4 device
