This will not happen. Straight out. Why because all major broadband companies still have and operate earlier tech in the Nodes and Headends. If you don't know what that is, google it. Hence, the 3.0 which is relatively fully operational in XFINITY, Verizon, ATT, spectrum and Cox will be coherent in the next 5 to 6 years. But hey. Maybe your area is using different tech from all of us around the 🇺🇸. I do work for one of those companies and worked at Verizon for 4 years in their NY headend. 👍

I work for xfinity as a cable tech. These will work on xfinity. Only downside is it's refurbished. If Mac address of refurbished unit is still tied to an account, it will be an issue to add modem to your account.

Working in cable you still see the occasional docsis 2 modem in the homes... Doubt they will ban docsis 3 anytime soon. Also 16 channels should be good for up to 500mbps download if you pay for higher speed you should really look for more channel bonding or docsis3.1 if anyone is curious

Good deal. Heck even it's good backup if DOCSIS 3.1 modem fails in age of work from home.

Still though… it's not the worst deal I've seen for a door stopper.

Could, but is that really likely anytime soon? I doubt it.

For Comcast/Xfinity, to find list of compatible modems:
https://www.xfinity.com/support/devices/#unauth

For my zip, this modem isn't listed as compatible.

1many cable ISPs remove modems as they go forward. Some Docsis 3.0 modems are already being removed from supported modems lists.

Check this out: https://www.reddit.com/r/Comcast/...ow_end_of/

FOR NEW ACCOUNTS Comcast no longer supports Motorola SB6121 (DOCSIS 3.0, 4x4, capable of up to 343Mbps). And for that reason on ebay it goes for about $10 shipped.

A cable modem is still used by AT&T and Verizon FiOS?

I am using this modem now with xfinity getting 480mpbs down on a 400mpbs plan. I just swapped to it after my old Arris 6141 died, I always keep a backup modem and these 16x4 ones for under 20.00 are great for that.
Plans 500mbps or less 16 channels is still plenty where I am. No reason to upgrade to 3.1 yet.

Very, very unlikely for an ISP to yank all DOC 3.0 support at once.
