-=PCTechTalk=- old modem problem

Hi,

It appears I may be having some "old modem" issues.  I use a Motorolla 
SB4200.  When I called cox cable for tech support because I could not go 
online, they did not see my  modem at all and told me it is old, you need a 
new one..It did work for me though 15 minutes later and has done this a few 
times intermittently.  They recommended motorolla 5101.

I wondered if I should just bite the bullet and get a new one, they offer a 
new one to me for $49.00, they say cheaper than buying it elsewhere.  Is 
anyone using a Motorolla on here with advise?  Also how do I test my modem 
speed to compare if I get a new one.  Will a new one give me more speed?

thanks,
Christy
