Any modem they give you should do the job fine, so its hard to say if one modem is better than another one.

Cat5e is enhanced Cat5... length varies based on how long of a cable you get... :?

Anyone know where to get a PCX5000??

I had this modem and IT WAS 1000% BETTER THAN THE GARBAGE THEY GAVE ME LAST WEEK! (SMC router)

This thing is pure garbage and i wish i had my PCX modem back... (Something got stuck in the connector or something and it wouldnt authenticate anymore (My connector came off and i had the hair-type wiring pushed right in the connector (It worked for a couple days)))

The other day i had 7 tabs open on a website AND I LOST THE CONNECTION TO THE SITE,ROUTER WAS RE-DIRECTING ME TO www.wsearch.net!! (I WAS VERY PISSED OFF I had to close the browser and restart it thus LOSING ALL TABS)

The only thing i didnt like about my PCX5000 was it kept locking up on me.... (THE CABLE LEVEL INTO MY ROOM WAS WEAK AND AS A RESULT THE TRANSMIT WAS TOO HIGH ON THE MODEM (USUALLY OVER 50db))




Does anyone here know where i can buy one??

They are still listed on TOSHIBA's site but sadly they dont sell them anymore :(

The PCX5000 was the BEST cable modem i ever had.......
