Great Modem but watch out for Comcast... . I bought this modem because it identical to the Comcast provided rental unit I have been using continuously for six years without a single problem or dropped connection. They have now raised the modem rental to $7.00 per month so buying my own modem is long overdue. I purchased this on Amazon Marketplace at a good price.
The problem I have encountered is that after connecting the new modem, I called Comcast to register the MAC address, I was told that it was "already in one of their systems but not in their inventory and the systems don't talk to each other so it can not be registered." I have written them asking for a better explanation or resolution and so far have only received a canned answer which does not address the problem. Great modem based on my past experience and I'm happy with Comcast's product but Comcast's support computing systems seem to be very poorly done.

TERAYON TJ 700X TJ715X CABLE MODEM DOCSIS 2.0 Reviews
Works seamlessly ! . I'm on Comcast Cable and their provided 'no name' modem (actually a Cisco) gave about 20-25 Mbits download and about 4Mbit upload but you have to rent it for $5/month. I checked their list online of compatible modems and the Terayon was listed so I bought a 'refurbished' one from an Amazon 3rd party. It was complete including cables (but no CD), just $20 shipped quickly. I connected it up with a direct cat 5 cable to my laptop, allowed the modem to boot up and opened a web browser which automatically directed me to a Comcast modem setup page which did a few tests, verified it as compatible (I had to put in my account #) and set it up automatically. Took about 10 minutes and I didn't have to call Comcast to give them the MAC address which I had been expecting. I then connected my wireless router (a Netgear WNR1000revA) and set that up using it's automatic wizard. The only thing different I had to do compared to the original modem was 'spoof' the router MAC address to match that of my laptop which the install tech. used to do the original setup, I guess Comcasts system was looking for this (not all routers allow this though). Now I get 25-30 Mbits download (wireless) but only about 2.5 Mbit upload. This is not a problem but I'm curious as to why it's slower.

TERAYON TJ 700X TJ715X CABLE MODEM DOCSIS 2.0 Opinions
Terayon Is Speedy . The Terayon cable modem is quite speedy and performing well in several speed test as well as in general usage at well over 9000 kb/s.
Only issues so far is that you must give your cable company all the information from the back like the serial number and model number before it will work with your system. It is also both PC and Mac compatible.
Also it comes with no documentation and some units have very difficult to read serial numbers.
For its low price it performs outstandingly.

Got it but without X ..i.e TJ715 model . Ordered TJ715X model but received TJ715 instead. This model is working great. Comcast was able to activate it quickly without any issue and I am getting same download speed > 15 MB but upload speed is less (~1.5 MB) as compare to before (6 MB). I don't upload much so don't care much about it.
Initially I wanted to return it as it was not correct model but later dropped idea as modem was cheap and Comcast is charging rental on their modem.

Good deal . I revived a used product, as they told me, but the price was excelent, just 20% of the new brand. Work great, good deal...
Terayon TJ 700X TJ715 Modem . Yes, the black box that Comcast charges $7/month for. After two plus years, no more rental fees!!!
...It takes around 45 minutes on the Comcast tech line for all the whistles and bells to work, without the rental fee.
...I just don't know why, it took me so long, to changeover.

So far so good. Works with Comcast . Have had the modem for little over a month and works fine. Have not noticed any difference when comparing with the Comcast "rental" modem which is a RIP-OFF at 5 bucks PER Month!
Awesome . The cable modem is working great. It was easy to set up and no problems with Comcast. Was delivered in great condition, not a scratch on the unit.
Cons Review
Used modems can be risky... . Stopped working after a few hours. We stream HD video, go online, and play video games online. Since we occasionally do all that simultaneously, it was very heavy use. Got really hot. I bought it used, so I can't be too upset about it. It may have been a good modem at some point in time, just not any more. It's a little dated. I think it was one of the first DOCSIS 2.0 modems, and they are already on to 3.0. The Webstar I replaced (it was the cable comapany's) worked fine, and so does the Linksys I have now. Save yourself the lease fee and get your own modem. Just make sure it is newer so that it has all the current standards, otherwise you won't be able to get very high download speeds.
did not work . The one that I bought did not work and had to return. it could be just that I got a bad unit.
