Great Modem I was torn between the Motorola 5100 and the D-link 202. I already know the 5100 is good from the reviews but I had to see for myself with the D-link and I'm really glad I did. It was simple to hook up. Make sure your provider get's the MAC address and you will be online in minutes. WIth Adelphia the screen pops up asking for Mac address if you're not using a router so you don't even have to call it in.
Speed is great with most pages coming up right after click of the mouse. The most I've ...

Possible problem for Comcast customers I bought this cable modem when I moved into my new apartment because it would be cheaper than renting one from Comcast in the long run. Everything worked fine for about a month, but then I wouldn't be able to connect to anything outside of my local network. Comcast technical support said that from their end it didn't look like anyting was connecting to their network, and my router could release and renew its IP address, so that narrowed it down to the cable modem. Unplugging the modem and plu...

Solid Solution for Comcast Users\ may need firmware upgrade So far I've used 3 of these devices in recent Comcast user installs with various SOHO broadband routers and have not had any compatability issues. As a matter of fact, they're solid high speed performers and I've been getting upwards of 9MB down! ...
One issue that may arise for comcast users is the need for a firmware patch if it hasn't already been upgraded.
Beyond that, this is a good alternative to the Motorola surfboard series.
As always....you can pic...

Works fine for me I've been using this as a Comcast cable modem and it has worked flawlessly for many months. Setup was easy and once done, you can forget it. I have it working with a Linksys wireless router and enjoy a true 4mb internet service throughout my house. I wanted the Motorola, but it wasn't on sale at the time I needed to get hooked up, so I went with the D-Link. I'm satisfied with it. Does everything a cable modem should.

Not so bad I updated firmware for using COMCAST cable.
If you use Windows XP SP2, you have to stop firewall.
Because DLink FTP Server cannot send Hitr252.bin file to cable modem.
I wasted an hour to find this problem.
Also Login ID is not "admin/hitron". (PDF manual was wrong)
You should use "dlink/dlink" for web login.
It works fine. That's it.

Lightning Fast & Simple To Use! I must say my experience with this modem couldn't have been better! Perfect sync was achieved within seconds of attaching the appropriate cables. As for the previous reviewers comments about the modem running hot, I can only say that mine runs 24-7 and it's as cool as a cucumber! D-Link has very good telephone support so if you should run into any problems I'm sure they'll be able to help you out. In any case, I became curious about the DCM-202 after reading numerous press releases and technical...

No go with Comcast I tried two of these modems on my Comcast connection. It would loose the connection (you couldn't ping your default gateway on the comcast network) at random times for as long as 30 seconds at random times.
It was impossible to use this modem with Vonage or other services that expect a reliable connection to function.
I have lot of other D-Link equipment, and typically recommend their hardware, but I would recommend staying away from this modem at least on a Comcast co...

Just couldn't hold a connection My toshiba modem broke after a year and this one looked cool so i got it. Worked fine for about a week, then couldn't hold a signal for more than a day. Lost connection then I'd Unplug wait and plug back in. You know the drill. work, stop. over and over.
Replaced it with a motorola surfboard. A full year later and never a single drop. Not the computer, same connection, problem was clearly the modem.
Cheers

Awesome Cable Modem! I couldn't be more pleased with this cable modem.
I called up my ISP, told them I was switching modems from the one they gave me and this D-Link one and they asked for the MAC address and serial number, and said to plug it in after about an hour. They said to give the network time to add the modem to the network. An entire hour without Internet! AHHH! OK so I didn't have to be without Internet, but I was.
So after plugging in this modem it connected with the network rather qu...
