They might want you to "upgrade" to get all the features rolled in to one device or might like to sell you one themselves who knows . This site http://www.motorola.com/Video-Solutions/US-EN/Products-and-Services/Voice-an... seems to say that the 5101 can do 30Mbs so should be okay without an upgrade of hardware, you might need to update the firmware for the device but it would seem to support the faster speed out of the box, maybe get the cable service upgraded for speed and see if the modem handles it, if not then go shopping for a new modem
Thanks for the link Mark, there's a good chance you're right and they're just trying to sell me something for my convenience or so they can make money. There's also the possibility that the person we spoke to had no idea what she was talking about. I'll do more research. If anybody happens to have a SB5101 currently *working* at 20Mb/sec, I'd be very interested to hear from you. -- Regards, Matthew Cengia
