I am not too sure. I had one of the motorola DCT700 that I ordered for my cable company, but it was for comcast only so I resold it. I am sorry I wish I could be of better assistance.

Mine works. The XL4 not only takes a cablecard, it won't work without it. You may also need a tuning adapter if your cable provider uses switched digital video. I have Time Warner and they lease the card and the adapter together for $2.50/mo. I'd rather not have the extra expense and hassle, but given my location and viewing habits, it was unavoidable.

it worked on my TWC setup, I just had to provide them with the model and MAC address. Better than paying $5 a month for their modem.

It worked for my Atlantic Broadband. Call Time Warner Customer Service and they will tell you what you need to know to replace their supplied modem that you rent or are offered to purchase for a larger sum of money than you will pay for a used or refurbished one!

Yes, you can but you must have internet service. Normally, one gets a cable modem. This is the easiest way. A good Motorola Modem will cost about about $48 (e.g. Motorola Surfboard SB5101 Cable Modem). You can get a combination modem-wireless router from Amazon for about $85. I like Motorola SBG6580 DOCSIS 3.0 Wireless Cable Modem Listed on Amazon for $105. If you don't want to go that way you need another internet provider. This can be provided by another input such as DSL or satellite. These other internet providers usually come into a router and is required. If you have a router simply connect the router to the google box via an ethernet cable. Set-up is normally automatic from that point. Yes, you can but you must have internet service.

I have Comcast cable, and it works with the modem and the tv. I do not have phone service, but phone service works through the internet signal which is boosted fine with the Motorola Signal Booster.

We have charter Cable and it works good. We had problems with the set up because some of our devices had xp windows but other than that no problems

I have cox Cable and used it to split the signal and it worked great. This should do the job.

Yes indeed, it worked for me. That's all you need. No more rental fee..... But I would highly recommend for you to get in contact with your local cable company before purchasing this modem.... Just to be on the safe side. Mine has been working for over 2 yrs and the installation took only a few mins over the phone with the cable co. Good Luck.

The Motorola signal booster I purchased did nothing to improve the signal strength of my system (although I was looking for a better cable TV signal) and it knocked out my internet signal. For my system it was a waste of time and money (I have Comcast as an internet / TV / Phone provider) your situation may be different.

Yes. I work for comcast and purchased this one. It is great. You save money from the rental of equipment. If you are not even planning on getting phone, it is still a good choice to get this one because if you roll into a triple play you would have to pay rent for a similar phone modem.

I bought an used one for less than ten dollars. Works perfectly for my Time Warner Cable here in NY. I think if you buy an exact same model it should work- but you might want to call your broadband service provider first. And yes, I'm using 15 Mbps too.

I tried to use it with Charter cable to connect to my router, it did not work. I was told it has to do with the signal frequency being different.

Yeah! It will work with most routers especially Comcast. I have Charter & it worked just fine.

It is a DSL modem that is wireless. It is not compatable with cable. If your internet provider is DSL, you should verify with them that this particuar modem will work for you.

Don't know. The one I had went bad. Charter Cable told me to buy one, because I was renting the one I had from them. After buying one off of Amazon and hooking it up Charter then told me it was analog and it was too slow to work with their new digital speeds. I returned it No problem. You should consider this before your purchase.

In my opinion, it has worked the same as comcast's modem; I'm happy that I bought this and got rid of the $7 month charge from comcast because that's a ridiculous monthly charge. :-)
