DOCSIS 3.0 and DOCSIS 3.1 Cable Modems

Cable Modem Buying Tips and FAQ's

Cable ONE business customers are now required to use a DOCSIS 3.0 or DOCSIS 3.1 Cable Modem on all their plans. For plans up to 150 Mbps, they suggest that you buy one with 8 downstream channels. For plans up to 500 Mbps, buy a modem with at least 16 downstream channels. For higher speed plans, buy a modem with 32 downstream channels.

CableONE Residential Customers: See our CableONE Residential Approved Modems.

All of these modems are high quality and have pretty much the same features, except for number of downstream channels and those with routers built in. So don't worry too much about deciding which one to buy. Price should be a main factor in your buying decision.
