My eleven year old modem/router finally gave up the ghost so I started looking for some of my old spare modems and found one that still works.
This Actiontec M1000 is 16 years old and is still able to interface with my ISP. In fact I am still able to get the exact same speeds with this modem that I was able to get with my previous one.
My ISP is so terrible and behind the times that there is no real benefit in using a modern modem over a 16 year old one.
Only in America… A third world country pretending it is first world.
