cable modem/router recommendation ??

[albireo13]

I have a Linksys cable modem cabled to my Linksys wireless router for wireless internet to all my Macs. I have Comcast cable internet.

It worked well but yesterday it seemed to have died !!

Now I can either replace the cable modem and keep running with the two-box solution or go for a combination cable modem/router box.

I'd like to hear what other folks like for their cable modem/wireless router solution.

Does Apple offer any cable modem solution?


Thanks,
Rob

There is a well documented issue with cable modems that use the Broadcom chipset not playing well with Macs. It might just be PPC Macs, but I don't know.

I bought a Motorola SB 5120 a few years back, and it works great.
