5 out of 5 stars Excellent Cable Modem   October 21, 2007
diowrite (Canton, MA USA)
I got this modem, hooked it up, and absolutely loved it. Even though it is discontinued, there is plenty of support online for this modem but little, if any, is needed. Also, there is no problem for those with (lame) @Home Setups. It says right on the box to use Model No. 3CR29220 or CM29220.
3Com makes an excellent product. Wicked fast. Also, easy to connect, setup, and use.



5 out of 5 stars good product   July 18, 2003
At the beginning, I got the same time-out(20 minutes) problem, after calling AT&T many times(more than 10), they realized this is because I had not registered the cable modem with their server. After I registered it with their server, time-out issue is gone. There is a tech who visited my apartment to install the system for me. I just wonder this should be the very first step, how come it looks none of AT&T's support knows it?


1 out of 5 stars Firmware Problems...   November 18, 2002
6 out of 6 found this review helpful

3COM cable modems apparently have firmware problems that cause the connection to your cable provider to time-out, so you get a tempermental connection and have to try a bunch of resets to get it going again. My cable provider sadi that as long as it was DOCSIS compatible, it shouldn't be a problem - now I know why not a single 3COM was listed as "supported / approved" on their website (for anyone who cares - I'm with Cox Cable in Northern Virginia).

Get something else that'll actually work. Sure wish I'd known better...

This was one of the easiest modems to hook up! And the speed is quite fast. No Latency prepared to d-links cable modem. Runs very cool as well.


4 out of 5 stars 3com office connect modem   August 28, 2002
I purchased this modem because I was looking for a cheap one for my cable ISP. I was in luck to find this one at uBid.com for about $40 shipped. The modem did have some issues but they were all cleared up after I requested a firmware upgrade on dslReports.com for Optimum OnLine. I cannot stress the face enough about finding out whether your ISP is compatible with any modem before you purchase one.
