A Comcast technician said that it probably resets itself when it gets too hot. Recently, its been resetting itself and it usually occurs when I'm downloading or watching videos. I had this product for several months and I do use my internet a lot for watching large videos. I bought a Motorola Modem and everything works fine so far. The modem does feel a bit hot after awhile. After several tests of my connection, Comcast has determined that it was my modem that could be the problem. Though it took awhile to startup at first. So, the benefits of the D-Link is that it gets connected faster, but I never turn off my modem, I see no point.
Product easy to install, works great with D-Link Wireless Router. I use it with comcast cable network and I had no problems so far.
D-Link DCM-202 DOCSIS 2.0 USB/Ethernet Cable ModemI PURCHASED THIS TO REPLACE THE MODEM SUPPLIED BY MY CABLE COMPANY. IT WAS EASY TO SET UP, WORKED PERFECTLY RIGHT OUT OF THE BOX. IT IS FAST, STYLISH AND WAS A TERRIFIC BUY. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT.
This was so easy to set up. I've had my D-Link DCM-202 for almost a month and I am in internet heaven. Speeds maxed out at 1 MPS. I'm never leaving the house again, LOL. Buy this modem if you are looking for ease of installation, cost and value of product ($65 on Amazon plus $20 mail-in rebate by July 31, so hurry)., and a cool looking addition to your system. Then along came Charter (Thank God).
Speedy Gonzales. I used to have airless internet(radio and antenna) for about 2 years due to living in rural area. Inserted installation DVD (which helps you step-by-step), plugged it in (has it's own DC adapter for power) through ethernet (also has USB connection), called Charter to register the MAC address (the technician will do this for you if you are technically challenged) with them (which is listed on the side of the DCM-202) and Viola. Now I am receiving 10 MPS(). with my cable internet, the D-Link DCM-202, a D-Link EBR-2310 Router, Vonage Motorola router, and X-Box Live. I've already been tempted by Charter to upgrade to 16 MPS but 10 is just fine for now.
I haven't enjoyed the internet this much since the original dial-up days.
I had to replace it twice, but it eventually worked. I seems faster than my previous cable modem and it was a good price.
