Review
Surpassed expectations with TWC
I have Time Warner internet in the Raleigh/Durham area of NC. This is a DOCSIS 3.0 area.
My download speeds have been shockingly unreliable ever since I started my internet service about 6 months ago. It is supposed to be 20 mbit down.

Review
Motorola SB6141 + TWC = Excellent!
I just bought this modem and got rid off the SBG6580 due to it's weak wireless signal, plus i already own a good dlink wireless router.
Called time warner cable, gave them the mac address and it was up n running in a less than a minute =] it totally rocks!
TWC was charging me 7 bucks a month for the sb6580 rental fee, i live in los angeles and i can confirm this new modem works with TWC internet.
