Netgear CM600 Speed
How fast is the processor (SoC) in the Netgear CM600 24x8 Cable Modem? I know that the Netgear CM500 16x4 and Arris SB6183 16x4 modems use Broadcom chips that have 600 MHz dual-thread processing power. The Arris SB6190 uses a dual-core Intel chip that offers 1.2GHz of processing power for the modem. What does the Netgear CM600 offer?
Same 600 MHz DT Core.
on a plain bridged modem, processor speed is not very relevant. 600 MHz is still good we could get full line speeds in lab tests.
having a 1.2GHz on a bridged modem is not going to give any additional benefit. (ofcourse having 32 channels is nice if ISP/MSO is willing to enable 32 Channels on the RF plant)

Any other interesting details about the internals of the CM600 vs a competitor like the SB6190?
