brad's Experience (Version 4)

Date of Review:  Jan 12, 2007
The Bottom Line: You can buy other branded modems for less, but do you get the warranty of the Linksys and the Linksys record of quality?
Review: Hello, to everyone. Let me tell you about my research and experience with the Linksys wired BEFCMU10 version 4 cable modem.

Linksys has been making this cable modem for several years. Version four is the latest iteration. As far as I can...

Good basic product

Date of Review:  Jan 20, 2007
The Bottom Line: Good middle of the road performer. Worth buying if you can get it on sale.
Review: Disclaimer: I work for a cable company, so I have access to back-end information not normally available to most end users.

I picked up the Linksys BEFCMU10 cable modem "surplus" from my employer, mostly because I have other Linksys gear (a...

Sleek But Slow

Date of Review:  Apr 28, 2002
The Bottom Line: Sometimes you shouldn't buck conventional wisdom. The Motorola Surfboard is the superior product. If you doubt this, I suggest you try my experiment and see for yourself.
Review: I made the switch from dial-up to cable modem four months ago. Now, I can't imagine life without broadband. I started out renting a modem supplied by my cable company, Advanced Cable, with the idea that if I decided to keep the service I would buy...

Excellent Modem

Date of Review:  Feb 11, 2006
The Bottom Line: Linksys=quality. Enough said.
Review: My Motorola Surfboard modem died the other day after less than 2 years of service, so it was time to go out and buy another one, because I refuse to rent a modem from an ISP when in about 7-8 months you have paid for one (my ISP charges 5 bucks a...

Easy To Set Up

Date of Review:  Mar 10, 2007
The Bottom Line: Great cable modem to go with Linksys router. Fast, reliable, and ready for future DOCSYS upgrades.
Review: I bought this modem to replace my 6 year old Toshiba PCX1100U cable modem. It started to drop connections more and more frequently, probably due to it being a DOCSIS 1.1 device, while the network was already on DOCSIS 2.0.

This model is...

A solid cable modem, with one issue.

Date of Review:  Feb 14, 2005
The Bottom Line: Conclusion The BEFCMU10 is a good cable modem, it does have a problem with dropped connections but the modem is still usable. And its performance is comparable to other modems.
Review: I purchased my Linksys modem almost three years ago, and I have used it for close to two years. I first purchased the modem when I switched from dial up to cable, using Comcast as my provider. After about 18 months I switched to RCN and a Toshiba...

Overheating problem

Date of Review:  Jul 14, 2004
Review: This is not a full review, as I don't know nearly enough about cable modems to review it completely. I would just like to point out that it has a major problem with overheating. On its own, in an open space, it has always worked fine, but when I put...

Great product

Date of Review:  Nov 4, 2002
The Bottom Line: I reccomend this to everyone I meet because it's a great product and for the price you get alot.
Review: I would reccomend this modem to anyone thinking about getting a broadband connect. I've had mine for about a month now and not experianced one problem. It's the best product I've bought within the past year.It's great because it's alwasy on and...

Good, but can be problematic

Date of Review:  Nov 7, 2004
The Bottom Line: I wouldn't recommend a linksys product again because of the host of problems I've had over a large group of their products.
Review: I had purchased the modem after recently moving to another house. This was the second time I have had cable internet, both times it was from the same company, Comcast (previously Excite, previously At&t, previously @home).

The cable modem...

Ultra Fast

Date of Review:  Mar 11, 2004
Review: Yesterday I installed this Linksys EtherFast BEFCMU10 Cable Modem, because the Toshiba PCX1100U was having connection problems. No longer do I have to reboot my modem 2 to 4 times per day. The installation was very easy. Shortly after I set up this...
