I need some help picking a surfboard for my internet through my cable company, I was looking up ones that have wi fi and multiple connections but read alot of bad feedbacks so im stumped. I need a surfboard that is not going to leave me pinging when im paying for internet that should fly through anything. I plan on connecting a PS3 wired, a desktop wired and a laptop wirless. Any suggestions is appreciated.
..... a surf board for the internet?
Are you on drugs?
Can we please not delete this? ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahh. LOL'd so hard
Presumably he means the SURFboard cable modem by Motorola.
Really now who is laughing, yeah your a good moderator to post negative and then look stupid in the end. Maybe Mental should rethink who he picks as mods.Originally Posted by Vendaku~Metal
Yeah try looking it up before u post comments like this maybe ur the one on drugs!
Here is a link so u ppl know what im talking about and for some it even has pictures Newegg.com - surfboard cable modem
Yes, we get that now. But its still funny. Quit whining.
You should have just said modem, lol!
Ya the Motorolla cable modem was the first thing i thought of, have gone through a few over the years.
Honestly, it doesn't matter which you get. If you need WiFi then get one with WiFi otherwise just pick whichever one is in your budget. The "extra features" are minimal and you're only planning to connect 1 device over WiFi anyway. If you don't have a hub or switch for Ethernet then just make sure it has enough LAN ports for all the devices you want to plug in.
Also make sure you get the correct modem for your speed, i believe they have 15, 30 & 100MB models, just make sure your modem supports the speed you're on.
So, you want a router? 0o
A surfboard is something you stand on while surfing on waves at the beach.
See the difference?
Actually, no. Surfboard is a BRAND of MODEM.
Even I knew what he was talking about before even reading his post, and I thought the legends were smart.
That's a major misconception on my part.
A brand of a modem? Ohsnap, I thought he meant a surfboard like in the water O_O
maybe try anther brand, they look cheap and nasty.
There is nothing wrong with Motorola modems!! If you have no experience with a product don't post such shit!!
what? i cant say what they look like now?
dude im allowed to have my own opinion and post it, please go away.
You can't base an opinion on looks, that is retarded.
Really?
By glancing at an image online you deduced the quality & reliability of the device. My, that is impressive.
Idiots, idiots everywhere.

Not even gonna entertain Max's opinion... but uhm, working through the confusion of your post, if your ISP provides Linksys and Netgear routers look into those
Linksys is Belkin owned now, i would avoid them for a while to avoid being stuck in Limbo of having your device non-supported by both companies.
You mean what 90% of people who shop online and don't look at reviews first do? Or most shops really since you don't have reviews there, unless you can play with the product before you buy it. In fact, I'd say pretty much every game you have to deduce the quality and reliability before you buy it on essentially the box alone, because trailers are mostly CGI (which should be banned imo!)
So yeah, I'd say most people are probably fairly good at judging a product from images alone, everything else like brand is just metadata improving that impression.
